<span>The answer is -12 + 20x ≥ –6x 9. The inequality is –4(3 – 5x)≥ –6x 9. The first step is to multiply factors on the left side. The intermediary steps are: (-4)*(3) - (-4)*(5x) ≥ –6x 9. -12 - (-20x) ≥ –6x 9. So, the first step will be: -12 + 20x ≥ –6x 9.</span>
Answer:
The area of the new rectangle is 882 in².
Step-by-step explanation:
Let l be the length and w be the width of the original rectangle,
So, the area of the original rectangle is,
A = l × w ( Area of a rectangle = Length × Width )
Given, A = 72 in²,
⇒ lw = 72 ------- (1),
Since, if the rectangle are changed by a scale factor of 3.5,
⇒ New length = 3.5 l,
And, new width = 3.5 w,
Thus, the area of the new rectangle = 3.5l × 3.5w

( From equation (1) ),
= 882 in²
