Problem 4

Technology required. A bagel shop makes bagels that serve 1 person each. For a party, the baker is asked to make a large bagel in the same shape that will serve 25 people.

  1. By what scale factor will the bagel need to be dilated? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
  2. The bagels are topped with a thin layer of cream cheese. Assume the thickness of the cream cheese is the same on both bagels. How many times more cream cheese will be required for the dilated bagel as for the original? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
