To reproduce the scale drawing of Tomas’s front yard with the new scale of 1 box = 10 feet, you need to adjust the dimensions of the original drawing based on the change in scale.
Since the original scale is 1 box = 5 feet, you can determine the dimensions of the rectangle in terms of feet. For example, if the original dimensions of the rectangle were:
- Length: 6 units (which is 30 feet, since 6 boxes * 5 feet/box)
- Width: 3 units (which is 15 feet, since 3 boxes * 5 feet/box)
To convert this to the new scale of 1 box = 10 feet:
- Length in the new scale: 30 feet / 10 feet per box = 3 units
- Width in the new scale: 15 feet / 10 feet per box = 1.5 units
However, when it comes to box measurements in the options provided, it doesn't always translate directly as the original dimensions can vary.
Considering the options you provided, the closest representation would be one that reflects proportions correctly in terms of the new scale (1 box = 10 feet) while keeping the ratios consistent with the original drawing.
Therefore, the correct new scale drawing from your options would likely be:
Image with alt text: 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.
This suggests a similar proportionality based on the new scaling of the original dimensions.
