We have that
coordinates are
<span>A(12,7), B(12,−3), C(−2,−3), and D(−2,7)
</span>
i use the formula of midpoint <span>between A and B
</span>Xm=(x1+x2)/2 Ym=(y1+y2)/2
A(12,7) B(12,−3)
Xm=(12+12)/2=12
Ym=(7+(-3))/2=2
the point (12,2) <span>is halfway between A and B</span>
Area is square units, so the new area would be the scale factor squared:
Scale factor is 2, so the area would increase by 2^2 = 4
The answer is B.4
Set the height to h, and the width to w.
We know that wh=190 and h=2w-1.
Substituting 2w-1 for h, we have:
w(2w-1)=190
So:
2w^2-w-190=0
Factoring this equation, we get (2w+19)(w-10)=0. The solutions to this equation are -9.5 and 10, but clearly the width must be positive, Substituting 10 for the width, we get 10*2-1=19 for the height.
