Answer:

1. area of new pen = 11 1/4 ft^2

2. i. 5 feet by 2 1/4 feet

ii. 2 ½ feet by 4 ½ feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The size of the pen as planned = 5 ft long by 4 ½ ft wide

Area of the pen = length x width

                          = 5 x 4 ½

                          = 5 x 9/2

Area of the pen = 45/2

                          = 22 ½ ft^2

But, Krista has to make the pen ½ the size of planned. So that; area of new pen = ½ x 22 ½

       = ½ x 45/2

       = 45/4

       = 11 1/4

area of new pen = 11 1/4 ft^2

The area of the new pen would be 11 1/4 ft^2.

The possible values she could use are:

i. 5 feet by 2 1/4 feet

ii. 2 ½ feet by 4 ½ feet
