Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
The length of the shelf = 24 inches
The width of the shelf = 7 inches
Area of the shelf, A = 24 × 7
= 168 inch²
When the width of the shelf is doubles,
New width = 14 inch
New area, A' = 14×24
= 336 inch²
It means,
A' = 2(A)
So, the new area becomes 336 inch² i.e. twice the initial area.
