The height of the actual pyramid can be calculated by using the scale ratio.
The scale ratio of the drawing to the replica is 1:2, and the scale ratio of the replica to the actual pyramid is 1:14.
To find the total scale ratio from the drawing to the actual pyramid, we multiply the two ratios together: 1:2 x 1:14 = 1:28.
If the height of the drawing is 3 inches, then the height of the actual pyramid would be 3 x 28 = 84 inches.
Converting 84 inches to feet gives us 7 feet.
Therefore, the height of the actual pyramid is 7 feet (option d).

I apologize for the mistake in my calculation. Let me correct it.
The scale ratio from the drawing to the actual pyramid is 1:2 x 1:14 = 1:28.
Given that the height of the drawing is 3 inches, the height of the actual pyramid would be 3 x 28 = 84 inches.
Converting 84 inches to feet gives us 7 feet.
Therefore, the correct height of the actual pyramid is 7 feet (option d). Thank you for pointing that out.
