The students in Suzanne's school are painting a rectangular mural outside the building that will be 15 feet by 45 feet. Scale drawing of the mural is shown. The diagonal is approximately 6.3 units. Write the unit rate for the proportional relationship between lengths on the mural y and lengths in the scale drawing x.

The dimensions on paper are 1.992ft by 5.976ft with a scale factor of 7.53

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step will be to find the diagonal of the rea life mural.

We can use Pythagoras' Theorem to do this.

Diagonal = =47.43 feet.

Now we have the real-life diagonal, we will now relate the diagonal of the painting outside with the one on paper. We can do this by dividing the two diagonals.

This will be 47.43 / 6.3 units = 7.53.

The scale factor is 7.53

To get the dimensions of the length and the breadth on paper, we divide the outside dimensions by the scale factor.

This will be

Length = 15/ 7.53 = 1.992

Breadth = 45/7.53 = 5.976

Therefore, the dimensions on paper are 1.992ft by 5.976ft with a scale factor of 7.53

x = 12

y = 15
