Answer 2

The blueprint for the Pelham​'s living room has a scale of 2 inches equals 3 feet width equals 12 inches

Answer 3

To find the new width of the living room on the new blueprint, we need to convert the original blueprint width from 2 inches to the equivalent width on the new blueprint with the scale of 1 inch equals 5 feet.

Original blueprint width: 2 inches
Equivalent width on new blueprint: 2 inches * (5 feet / 3 feet) = 10 inches

Therefore, the width of the living room on the new blueprint is 10 inches.

Answer 4

I apologize for the error. Let's try the calculation again.

Original blueprint scale: 2 inches = 3 feet
New blueprint scale: 1 inch = 5 feet

To find the width of the living room on the new blueprint, we can set up a proportion:

2 inches / 3 feet = x inches / 5 feet

Cross multiply:

3 * x = 2 * 5
3x = 10
x = 10 / 3
x ≈ 3.33 inches

Therefore, the width of the living room on the new blueprint is approximately 3.33 inches.

Answer 5

Given that the original blueprint for the Pelham's living room has a width of 12 inches at a scale of 2 inches equals 3 feet, we can calculate the width on a new blueprint with a scale of 1 inch equals 5 feet as follows:

Original blueprint width: 12 inches
Scale: 2 inches = 3 feet

Width on new blueprint:
12 inches * (5 feet / 3 feet) = 20 inches

Therefore, the width of the living room on the new blueprint with a scale of 1 inch equals 5 feet would be 20 inches.
