Question

(Similarity and Transformations)- Jenna is creating a mural for her bedroom wall. She would like to copy a picture that is 2 inches by 2.5 inches. She uses a copy machine to enlarge it by a factor of 4. Then she projects it on her wall at a factor of 12. What are the dimensions of the mural? Are the pictures similar? please answer ASAP.

Answer 1

HEY MATE

The dimensions of the mural are 96 in by 120 in.

Explanation:

First, start with the original dimensions:

2 in by 2.5 in

Because you're enlarging it by a factor of 4, both sides will be multiplied by 4.

2x 4= 8

2.5 x 4 = 10

Now, the dimensions are

8 in by

10 in.

"Then she projects it on her wall at a factor of 12."

Repeat the same process, but with the new dimensions:

8 in x 12

= 96 in 10 in x

12 = 120 in

Therefore, the dimensions of the mural are 96 in by 12 in.
