Answer:

It will be 60 pixels high and 75 pixels wide

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{400}{60}=\frac{500}{x}$

As

The space allowed for the mascot on a school's Web page is 75 pixels wide by 60 pixels high
Its digital image is 500 pixels wide by 400 pixels high

So, the expression becomes

$\frac{400}{60}=\frac{500}{x}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:fraction\:cross\:multiply:\:if\:}\frac{a}{b}=\frac{c}{d}\mathrm{\:then\:}a\cdot \:d=b\cdot \:c$

$400x=60\cdot \:500$

$400x=30000$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}400$

$\frac{400x}{400}=\frac{30000}{400}$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$x=75$

Therefore, it will be 60 pixels high and 75 pixels wide
