Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Scale factor = 1 : 7
a)Let the length of the house in the scale drawing = x
1:7 :: x : 21
Product of means = Product of extremes
7*x = 1* 21
x = [tex]\frac{1*21}{7}[/tex]
x = 3
Length of the house in the scale drawing = 3 in
b) Height of the real house =y
1 : 7 :: 4 : y
Product of extremes = product of means
1 * y = 7*4
y = 7*4
y = 28
Height of real house = 28 feet
