A rectangle has a length of 7.5 inches and a width of 3 inches. This rectangle is dilated by a scale factor of 2.2 to create a new rectangle. What are the dimension of the new rectangle? Length and Width

The length and the width of the new rectangle are 16.5 inches and 6.6 inches respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shape: Rectangle

Required

Dimension of the new rectangle

The dimensions of the new rectangle can be solved by multiplying the scale factor by the old dimensions;

This means that

New Length = Scale factor * Old Length

and

New Width = Scale factor * Old Width

Calculating the new length

New Length = Scale factor * Old Length

Substitute 2.2 for scale factor and 7.5 for old length; This gives

Calculating the new width

New Width = Scale factor * Old Width

Substitute 2.2 for scale factor and 3 for old width; This gives

Hence, the length and the width of the new rectangle are 16.5 inches and 6.6 inches respectively
