Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

Givens

Given Length: 3x - 8

Width: 7x

Area: 7x * (3x - 8)                  Remove the brackets

Area: 21x^2 - 56x

Now double the length

New Length = 2 * old length

old length = 3x - 8

New Length = 2(3x - 8)         Remove the brackets

New Length = 6x - 16

The width remains as 7x

Area = New Length * width

Area = (6x - 16)*7x                  Remove the brackets

Area = 42x^2 - 112x

Observe

42x^2 is twice as big as 21x^2

-112x is twice as small as 56x

So the area has changed by a factor 2

23 20' 48" is the same as _____. Round to the nearest hundredth of a degree.
boyakko [2]
So this is read as 23 degrees, 20 minutes, and 48 seconds.  Each degree has 60 minutes and each minute has 60 seconds, somewhat like time.  You must start from right to left for this to work.  This may seem complicated but the way to find this is as follows:  
23+(20+(48/60))/60.  A simpler way to see this is by first taking 48/60 which is .8.  Now you take 20+.8 which is 20.8 and you divide it by 60 once more.  This comes out to be approximately .35.  Now you have converted the seconds and minutes to degrees so you add 23+.35 which is 23.35.  Therefore your answer is 23.35 degrees.
