Answer:

The dimensions of the work area are 16 ft by 36 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the length of the work area in feet

y-----> the width of the work area in feet

we know that

The perimeter of the work area is equal to

104=2(x+y)

simplify

52=(x+y)

y=52-x ----> equation A

The area of the work area is equal to

576=xy ---> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

576=x(52-x)

576=52x-x^2

x^2-52x+576=0

solve the quadratic equation by graphing

using a graphing tool

The solutions are

x=16 ft, y=36 ft

or

x=36 ft, y=16 ft

see the attached figure

therefore

The dimensions of the work area are 16 ft by 36 ft

How was ABCDEFGH transformed to A'B'C'D'E'F'G'H'?
Yanka [14]
So ur going from a smaller shape to a larger shape....means the scale factor is more then 1. The scale factor is the number that u multiply the original shape by to get the other shape.

so lets look at DE...it is 2.....and D'E' is 6

so 2 * x = 6...with ur scale factor being x
2x = 6
x = 6/2
x = 3.....so the scale factor is 3....because multiplying the original shape by 3, gives u the other shape
