Answer:

No. The screen on your new tv is not a dilation of the screen on your old tv

Step-by-step explanation:

Old TV = 20 * 15

New TV = 16 * 9

The new TV is a dilation of the old TV if it has the same shape but different size.

16/20 = 0.8

9/15 = 0.6

The difference in the ratio of lengths and widths of the new and old TV shows that the figures are not of the same shapes.
