The correct answer is:

A grid is shown with a rectangle drawn on it. The rectangle is 16 units long and 12 units wide, labeled with 16 and 12 respectively.

Scale: 1 box = 5 feet

Image with alt text: A grid is shown with a rectangle drawn on it. The rectangle is 16 units long and 12 units wide, labeled with 16 and 12 respectively. Scale: 1 box = 5 feet

To answer the question, we need to determine the new dimensions of the rectangle in the scale drawing of Tomas's front yard.

Given that the original scale is 1 box = 5 feet, and we want to change it to 1 box = 10 feet, we need to find the equivalent measurements.

We can calculate the new dimensions by multiplying the original dimensions by the scale factor:

New length = 8 units * (10 feet / 5 feet) = 8 units * 2 = 16 units

New width = 6 units * (10 feet / 5 feet) = 6 units * 2 = 12 units

Therefore, the correct answer is:

A grid is shown with a rectangle drawn on it. The rectangle is 16 units long and 12 units wide, labeled with 16 and 12 respectively.

Scale: 1 box = 5 feet

To reproduce the scale drawing of Tomas's front yard with a scale of 1 box = 10 feet, you should choose the image that shows a grid with a rectangle that is 16 units long and 12 units wide, labeled with 16 and 12 respectively. The scale is still 1 box = 5 feet.

To answer the question, we need to determine the new length of the boxes in the scale drawing.

Given that the original scale factor is 1 box = 6 inches, and we want to change it to 1 box = 12 inches, we need to find the equivalent measurements.

We can calculate the new length of the boxes by multiplying the original length in boxes by the scale factor:

New length of boxes = 10 boxes * (12 inches / 6 inches) = 10 boxes * 2 = 20 inches

Therefore, the correct answer is:

20

wrong

I apologize for the incorrect response.

To determine the new length of the boxes in the scale drawing, we need to multiply the original length in boxes by the new scale factor:

Original length: 10 boxes

Original scale factor: 1 box = 6 inches

New scale factor: 1 box = 12 inches

New length of boxes = 10 boxes * (12 inches / 6 inches) = 10 boxes * 2 = 20

Therefore, the correct answer is:

20
