The percentage increase in the area of a rectangle is 44% if each of its sides is increased by 20%.

<h3>What is a rectangle?</h3>

It is defined as two-dimensional geometry in which the angle between the adjacent sides is 90 degrees. It is a type of quadrilateral.

It is defined as the area occupied by the rectangle in two-dimensional planner geometry.

The area of a rectangle can be calculated using the following formula:

Rectangle area = length x width

New length = (120x/100) m

New breadth = (120y/100) m

New area = (6x/5 × 6y/5) m²

The difference between the original area = xy

new area 36xy/25

Percentage increase = (11xy/25 1/xy x 100)

= 44%

Thus, the percentage increase in the area of a rectangle is 44% if each of its sides is increased by 20%.

4xy+4x-6y-6 factored completely

Aneli [31]

Answer:

(4x - 6)(y + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Group them: (4xy + 4x) (-6y - 6)

Take out the greatest common factor for both:

4x(y + 1) -6(y + 1)

Put it together: (4x - 6) (y + 1) (y + 1)

Since there are two (y + 1)'s, you can get rid of one, giving you:

(4x - 6) (y + 1)

Write the equation of the line, in point-slope form. Identify the point (-2, -2) as (x1, y1). Use the box provided or the upload

zimovet [89]

Answer:

m = (2-(-2))/(2-(-2)) = 4/4 = 1
y +2 = 1(x +2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation for a line with slope m through point (x1, y1) is ...

y -y1 = m(x -x1)

To find the slope of the line, find the ratio of the difference in y-values of the points to the difference in corresponding x-values. Here, the slope is ...

m = (2 -(-2))/(2 -(-2)) = 4/4 = 1 . . . work to compute slope

The problem statement tells you x1 = -2, y1 = -2. Putting the numbers in to the point-slope form gives ...

y -(-2) = 1(x -(-2))

y + 2 = x + 2 . . . equation form with m, (x1, y1) filled in

The answer at the top leaves the slope shown as 1. We don't know how much simplification you are expected to do. Obviously, this <em>could</em> be simplified to y=x, but then the use of (-2, -2) for the point would not be obvious.
