Question

the front side of a doghouse is shown in this scale drawing The height of the door in the drawing is 2 inches and the width is 3.5 inches. ... Using the scale given, enter the actual height, in feet, of the doghouse door.

Answer 1

So, every one inch in the real dog house would be equal to .4 on the scale drawing.

So,

8/.4= 20

10/.4= 25

So, the dog house is 20 by 25 inches.

The question asked for the area.

20*25= 500

The real dog house has an area of 500 in^2.

I hope this helps!
