<span>The rectangle with the largest area with a given perimeter will be a square - so the sides will be equal. So we need to find length of side, L, such that 4*L=168.
L = 168/4
L=42.
So the dimensions of the rectangle that maximizes the area with a perimiter of 168 feet are: 42 feet by 24 feet.</span>
The length of ST is 10 units, the length of S't" is 2 units.
This means the dilated figure was decreased by a factor of 5.
Because it is smaller it would be a scale factor of 1/5 ( 0.2 as a decimal).
nice
i think there's supposed to be more to the problem lol
