Question

A rectangle has a length of 6.2 inches and a width of 4 inches. This rectangle is dilated by a scale factor of 2.3 to create a new rectangle. Which figure represents the new rectangle?

Answer 1

Answer:

A rectangle with length 14.26 and a width of 9.2.

Step-by-step explanation:

This means the length of the new rectangle will be the original 6.2*2.3 = 14.26.
