132,143 PointsFor this exercise, your changing and adding attributes, first you align the EditText to the top of its parent (the RelativeLayout), then you move the ImageView below the EditText (layout_below attribute), then set the scale type to "fitXY", and lastly adjust the view bounds to be true (so the height is based on the width),
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<EditText
android:id="@+id/captionField"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:hint="Enter a caption" />
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/imageView1"
android:layout_below="@id/captionField"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:src="@drawable/grumpy_cat" />
</RelativeLayout>
