To determine the correct scale drawing of Tomas’s front yard at a scale of 1 box = 10 feet, we first need to convert the dimensions of the original rectangle, which is 8 units long and 6 units wide at a scale of 1 box = 5 feet, to the new scale.
1. **Calculate the actual dimensions of the rectangle**:
- Length: 8 units × 5 feet/unit = 40 feet
- Width: 6 units × 5 feet/unit = 30 feet
2. **Convert the actual dimensions to the new scale (1 box = 10 feet)**:
- For the length at the new scale:
- 40 feet ÷ 10 feet/unit = 4 units
- For the width at the new scale:
- 30 feet ÷ 10 feet/unit = 3 units
Therefore, the new dimensions for the rectangle at the scale of 1 box = 10 feet should be 4 units long and 3 units wide.
Looking at the responses:
- The correct scale drawing should have dimensions of 4 units long and 3 units wide.
The appropriate response is:
**A grid is shown with a rectangle drawn on it. The rectangle is 4 units long and 3 units wide, labeled with 4 and 3 respectively. Scale: 1 box = 10 feet.**
