You have a square with an area of 100 meters^2.
if you decrees a pair of opposite sides by 50%. you end up with a rectangle with the area of 50 meters^2.
then you increase the other pair of opposite sides by 50%. you end up with a rectangle with the area of 75 meters^2. OK now I see what I did wrong. 

The correct answer is 75%

How to find distance between two points?

Distance between two points is the length of the line segment that connects the two points in a plane.

The formula to find the distance between the two points is usually given by D = √((x₂ – x₁)² + (y₂ – y₁)²)

This formula is used to find the distance between any two points on a coordinate plane or x-y plane.

According to the given question:

The four vertices are D(-1,-3), E(-9, -9), F(-18, 3) and G(-10, 9) check the attachment below.

Distance between two points D = √((x₂ – x₁)² + (y₂ – y₁)²)

Side DE = √((-9 – (-1))² + (-9 – (-3))²) = √100 = 10 units

Side EF = √((-18 – (-9))² + (3 – (-9))²) = √225 = 15 units

Side FG = √((-10 – (-18))² + (9 – 3)²) = √100 = 10 units

Side GD = √((-1 – (-10))² + (-3 – 9)²) = √225 = 15 units

∴ Area of rectangle = l x b = DE . EF

Area = 10 x 15 = 150 sq. units

Hence the area of rectangle with the given coordinates is 150 sq. units

Step-by-step explanation:

−y+5.3+7.2y−9

Subtract 9 from 5.3 to get −3.7.

−y−3.7+7.2y

Combine −y and 7.2y to get 6.2y.

6.2y−3.7
