The set for a school play needs a replica of a historic buildingpainted on a backdrop that is 20 feet long and 16 feet high. The actual building is 400 feet long and 320 feet high. A stage crewmember writes (x,y)->(1/12x,1/12y) to represent the dilation. Is the crewmember's calcutaion correct if the painted replica is to cover the entire backdrop?

Respuesta :

the replica is 1/12 of the other noe
so

1/12 of 400=20?
33.333=20?
false
nope

16 is 1/12 of 320?
16=26.666666?
nope


it is not correct dialation
it is bigger tho so it will cover the monument
