The new scale is 1 box = 20 meters, so the size of each box in the new drawing will be larger than in the original drawing. Since the scale factor is 20/5 = 4, each box in the new drawing will be 4 times larger than in the original drawing.
To create the new scale drawing, we need to multiply each coordinate of the original drawing by the scale factor.
Original drawing:
Point A: (8, -4)
New drawing:
Point A: (8 * 4, -4 * 4) = (32, -16)
Therefore, the new scale drawing that shows the scale of 1 box = 20 meters is the one where Point A is located at (32, -16).
8
-4
