Let x be the length and y be the width of a rectangle.
Area = xy
When x and y are doubled
Length = 2x and Width = 2y
Area = 2x x 2y
Area = 4xy

Answer: When the dimension is doubled, the area is 4 times the original.

If they proportional, it implies
(x+2)/(x-1) = 8/10
Or 10x +20 = 8x-8
Or 2x = -28 or x = -14
