Answer:

1/3 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(3x - 2) = 6x + 2

distribute

-12x +8 = 6x+2

Add 12 x to each side

-12x+12x +8 = 6x+12x+2

8 = 18x+2

Subtract 2 from each side

8-2 = 18x+2-2

6 = 18x

Divide each side by 18

6/18 = 18x/18

1/3 =x

Hello!

You have to find the area of the first rectangle

13 * 25 = 325

Next find the area of the second rectangle

The base is quadripled

13 * 4 = 52

52 * 25 = 1300

Divide the area of rectangle 2 by the area of rectangle 1

1300/ 325 = 4

The answer is D. 4 times bigger

Hope this helps!
