A^2+b^2=c^2
24^2=12^2+x^2
sqrt(576-144)=x
sqrt(432)=x
12sqrt(3)=x
the answer is c
Let s represent the length of any one side of the original square. The longer side of the resulting rectangle is s + 9 and the shorter side s - 2.
The area of this rectangle is (s+9)(s-2) = 60 in^2.
This is a quadratic equation and can be solved using various methods. Let's rewrite this equation in standard form: s^2 + 7s - 18 = 60, or:
s^2 + 7s - 78 = 0. This factors as follows: (s+13)(s-6)=0, so that s = -13 and s= 6. Discard s = -13, since the side length cannot be negative. Then s = 6, and the area of the original square was 36 in^2.

Answer: 43.4
Step-by-step explanation: if it was dilated by a bigger number than 1 then it’s goin to have a bigger area and in this case it was dilated by
4 2/3 so you multiply the area by 4 2/3 to round your answer to the nearest tenth and u get 43.4
