The scale factor that Ivory used to create their scaled copy is;
Scale is 1 interval on graph represents 4 units of the rectangle. This is 1:4 ratio.
- From the given image, we can see that the y-axis of the rectangle has 3 intervals while the x-axis has 1 intervals
- Now, from the image, we are told that the area of the scaled copy is 48 square units.
What this means is that the area of the triangle she is trying to represent with that graph is 48 square units.
- Now, if one interval of the graph is x-units, then it means;
length; y-axis = 3x units
width; x-axis = x units
- Area of a rectangle is given by;
Area = Length × width
Thus;
3x * x = 48
3x² = 48
x² = 48/3
x² = 16
x = √16
x = 4
Thus, 1 interval on the graph represents 4 units of the rectangle.
