Answer :
Answer:
Option D. Reduced by a factor of [tex](1/3)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The scale factor is equal to divide the length of the photocopy of the magazine cover by the length of the original magazine cover
Let
z-----> the scale factor
x------> the length of the photocopy of the magazine cover
y-----> the length of the original magazine cover
so
[tex]z=\frac{x}{y}[/tex]
we know that
If z > 1 ---------> is an enlargement
If z<1 ------> is a reduction
In this problem we have
[tex]z=1/3[/tex] ------> is a reduction
substitute
[tex]1/3=\frac{x}{y}[/tex]
[tex]x=(1/3)y[/tex] ------> reduced by a factor of [tex](1/3)[/tex]
