the width of the new image?

Answer 1

12

Given the length and width of a square to be 12

If the of the square is dilated by a factor of 1, this means that the value will be multiplied by 1 as shown;

New width = Old width * 1

New Width = 12 * 1

New width = 12

Hence the width of the new image will also be 12
