A poster is shown below: A rectangle is shown. The length of the rectangle is labeled 10 feet. The width of the rectangle is labeled 4 feet. What are the dimensions if the poster is enlarged by a factor of three over two? 12 ft by 30 ft 2 ft by 5 ft 6 ft by 15 ft 5 ft by 12 ft

OpenStudy (welshfella):

multiply the length and the width by 3/2. this will give you the required dimensions.

OpenStudy (welshfella):

10 * 3/2 = ?

OpenStudy (kathydimieri12):

15 @welshfella

OpenStudy (sloppycanada):

4 * 3/2?

OpenStudy (sloppycanada):

15 is correct. but you need the other dimension as well.

OpenStudy (kathydimieri12):

6 @sloppycanada

OpenStudy (sloppycanada):

OpenStudy (kathydimieri12):
