Question

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%

Answer 1

Answer:

The dimensions of the scaled rectangle are

$6.3\ in$ of length by $11.9\ in$ of width

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale factor is equal to $70\%$

Remember that

$70\%=70/100=0.70$

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

$9*0.7=6.3\ in$

$17*0.7=11.9\ in$
