160

When you double both the length and width, you are multiplying by 2 twice. Whatever you do to one side of an equation, you have to repeat on the other.

l * w = 40; This is the original equation.

2l * 2w = 40 * 2 * 2; This is when you double the length and the width.

The 2 * 2 on the end can be simplified.

2l * 2w = 40 * 4

Now, simplify 40 * 4.

2l * 2w = 160

So, when you double both the length and the width, you multiply the area by 4, making the area 160.

Can you solve this problem please​
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

k = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points are collinear then the slopes between consecutive points are equal.

Using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (5, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, - 1)

m = \frac{-1-1}{1-5} = \frac{-2}{-4} = \frac{1}{2}

Repeat with another 2 points and equate to \frac{1}{2}

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (k, 4)

m = \frac{4+1}{k-1} , then

\frac{5}{k-1} = \frac{1}{2} ( cross- multiply )

k - 1 = 10 ( add 1 to both sides )

k = 11

Find the x-intercept and y-intercept of the liné.<br> - 6x + 5y = 21
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

x=-3.5 or -7/2 (same thing)

y=21/5

Step-by-step explanation:

x intercept is when y=0

y intercept is when x=0

so

x intercept is

-6x=21

x=21/-6

x=-3.5

y intercept is

5y=21

y=21/5
