Answer:
8.94 inches or [tex] 8\frac { 1 5 } { 1 6 } [/tex] inches
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the current height of the photo is [tex]3\frac{1}{4}[/tex] inches and the customer wants it to be enlarged by a factor of [tex]2\frac{3}{4}[/tex] its current height.
[tex] 3\frac { 1 } { 4 } = 3.25 [/tex]
[tex] 2 \frac { 3 } { 4 } = 2.75 [/tex]
To find the enlarged height, we will multiply the scale factor with the photo's current height.
Enlarged height = [tex]3.25 \times 2.75 = 8.94 inches or [tex] 8\frac { 1 5 } { 1 6 } [/tex] inches
