The dimensions of the photo are if he scales it down by a factor of one-half is 3 in by 4 in.
Given that
Allen has a photo that is 6 in by 8 in.
We have to determine
What will the dimensions of the photo be if he scales it down by a factor of one-half?
According to the question
The area of the photo is,
[tex]\rm Area = Length \times width\\\\Area = 6 \times 8\\\\Area = 42 \ inches^2[/tex]
The original dimension is 6 in by 8 in
If he scales it down by a factor of 1/2.
Then,
The dimensions of the photo are if he scales it down by a factor of one-half is,
[tex]\rm = \dfrac{6}{2} \ and \ \dfrac{8}{2}\\\\= 3 \ and \ 4[/tex]
Hence, the dimensions of the photo are if he scales it down by a factor of one-half is 3 in by 4 in.
