A computer chip on a circuit board has a rectangular shape, with a width of 6mm and a length of 9mm. Plans for the circuit board must be drawn using a scale factor of 15. Draw a scale diagram of the computer chip as it would appear on the plans.
Please show work.
To draw a scale diagram of the computer chip on the plans, we need to apply the scale factor of 15 to both the width and length of the chip.
The width of the chip is 6mm, so we multiply it by the scale factor of 15:
6mm * 15 = 90mm
The length of the chip is 9mm, so we multiply it by the scale factor of 15:
9mm * 15 = 135mm
Now, using these scaled measurements, we can draw a rectangle on the plans with a width of 90mm and a length of 135mm. Make sure to label the dimensions on the diagram to indicate the scaled size of the chip.
Remember, the scale factor of 15 means that every 1mm on the actual chip corresponds to 15mm on the plans. So, the scaled diagram will be 15 times larger than the actual chip.
