<h3>Answer: 35 inches</h3>

Each side of the pentagon is multiplied by 5/3 to get the length of each new side, so the perimeter is multiplied by 5/3 to get the new perimeter.

New perimeter = (scale factor)*(old perimeter)

New perimeter = (5/3)*(old perimeter)

New Perimeter = (5/3)*(21)

New Perimeter = (5/3)*(21/1)

New Perimeter = (5*21)/(3*1)

New Perimeter = 105/3

New Perimeter = 35 inches

The combined area is approximately 95 square inches.
