Answer:

Elias is not correct. The new rectangle will be an enlargement because the scale factor is greater than 1. To be a reduction, the scale factor must be between 0 and 1.

4x-y=10 and y=2x-2 answers
Brums [2.3K]
4x - y = 10, y = 2x - 2

4x - (2x -2) = 10

4x - 2x + 2 = 10

2x = 8

x = 4

4(4) - y = 10

-y = -6

y = 6

So x = 4 y= 6
