Answer:
11 Square Units
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A be the area of the Rectangle
First statement: The area of the rectangle is increased by seven, we have :
A+7
Second Statement: Four less than twice the area of the rectangle
Twice the Area=2A
Four less = 2A-4
Therefore:
2A-4=A+7
Collecting like terms
2A-A =7+4
A=11
The area of the rectangle is 11 Square Units.
A negative number wouldn't be reasonable in investments because when you invest you are adding money to something. If you invest you aren't removing anything so there can't be negative numbers.
The formula for the area of a parallelogram is
A=b*h where b=base and h=height
if the base were to increase by 3times and the height were to increase by 2 times then
6A=b*h
The area of the parallelogram would be 6 times larger
So if the original area was 47units², then the new area would be
47*6=282units²
Answer=282units²
If you mean like half then 31?
