To write 0.1 as a percentage you have to multiply it by 100 and then put the % sign at the end of it.
0.1 X 100 = 10%
- 3/14 is your final answer.
Let
x--------> original length side of a square
we know that
area rectangle=length*width
area=126 in²
length=(x+8)
width=(x-3)
so
126=(x+8)*(x-3)------> x²-3x+8x-24=126----> x²+5x-150=0
using a graph tool------> to resolve the second order equation
see the attached figure
the solution is
x=10 in
the answer isthe original length side of a square is 10 in
Answer:The ratio of the new area to the old area is 1:4
