In the table, we are shown different scale factors and the corresponding width and length.

We need to find A, B and C.

A is the Width when the scale factor is 1/2. A scale factor of 1/2 means we will have half of the original measures.

The original width is the Width when the scale factor is 1: 10ft.

Thus A will be:


((1)/(2))*10

which is equal to:


(10)/(2)=5

The value of A is 5.

Next, to find the value of B, we consider that the original length is the length when the scale factor is 1: 18 ft.

And B is the length when the scale factor is 1/2, so to find B we multiply the scale factor 1/2 by the original length:


(1)/(2)*18

Which is equal to:


(18)/(2)=9

The value of B is 9.

Finally, C is the width when the scale factor is 3.2.

So to find C, we need to multiply that scale factor by the original width (which is 10ft)


3.2*10=32

The value of C is 32
