Answer :

ANSWER

75 feet

EXPLANATION

The scale factor means that the ratio of the model to the actual size of the dinosaur is 1 : 20.

The model is 3.75 feet long.

Let the actual length of the dinosaur be x.

So, it means that:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{20}\text{ = }\frac{3.75}{x} \\ \text{Cross}-\text{ multiply:} \\ 1\cdot\text{ x = 20 }\cdot\text{ 3.75} \\ x\text{ = 75 feet} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The actual length of the dinosaur is 75 feet.
