Answer:

8m ×3.5m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle= length ×width

Let the length and width of the rectangle be L and W meters respectively.

Area of rectangle= LW

LW= 28 -----(1)

L= 2W +1 -----(2)

Subst. (2) into (1):

(2W +1)(W)= 28

<em>Expand:</em>

2W² +W= 28

<em>-28 on both sides:</em>

2W² +W -28= 0

<em>Factorise</em><em>:</em>

(W +4)(2W -7)= 0

W +4=0 or 2W -7=0

W= -4 (reject) or W= 3.5

Substitute W= 3.5 into (2):

L= 2(3.5) +1

L= 7 +1

L= 8

∴ The dimensions of the rectangle is 8m ×3.5m.

Answer:

a) scale factor = 1.5

b) d length is 7.5

c) Area scale factor is 2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given QR =6

And ST =9

Length Scalar factor = enlarged length /previous length

 =9/6

 =1.5

Length Scalar factor =1.5

b)we know PS enlarged length of PQ

Length scale factor = PS/PQ

1.5 =PS/5

PS =5×1.5

PS =d =7.5

d length is 7.5

c)Formula :

Area scale factor = (length scale factor)2

=(1.5)2

=2.25

Area scale factor is 2.25
