PLEASE HELP ASAP!
You have been hired by a museum to make a scale drawing poster of a painting to sell at the gift shop. The painting is 65in high by 105in wide. You are asked to use a 1in = 5in scale. What will the dimensions of your poster be? (2 points)

Respuesta :

we know that
[scale]=[poster]/[painting]
[poster]=[painting]*[scale]
scale=1/5

then

for high = 65 in the painting
[poster]=[painting]*[scale]-----------> [65]*[1/5]-----> 65/5-------> 13 in

for wide = 105 in the painting
[poster]=[painting]*[scale]-----------> [105]*[1/5]-----> 105/5-------> 21 in

the answer is
The dimensions of the poster will be  15 in x 21 in
