Scale a rectangle that has length 9 inches and width 17 inches by the scale factor determine the dimensions of the scaled rectangle. Scale factor 70%

Respuesta :

Answer:

The dimensions of the scaled rectangle are

[tex]6.3\ in[/tex] of length by [tex]11.9\ in[/tex] of width

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale factor is equal to [tex]70\%[/tex]

Remember that

[tex]70\%=70/100=0.70[/tex]

The scale factor is less than 1

so

the dilation is a reduction

To find the dimensions of the scaled rectangle multiply the dimensions of the original rectangle by the scale factor

[tex]9*0.7=6.3\ in[/tex]

[tex]17*0.7=11.9\ in[/tex]
