Answer:

ANSWER: Increase each dimension by 2 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

L=length; W=width; X=amount of increase; A=area

.

(L+X)(W+X)=2(LW)

(6m+X)(4m+X)=2(6m)(4m)

X^2+10X+24=48

X^2+10X-24=0

(X-2)(X+12)=0

(X-2=0) OR (X+12=0)

X=2 OR X=-12

X=2 meters

Triangle EFG is dilated by a scale factor of 3 centered at (0, 1) to create triangle E'F'G'. Which statement is true about the d
lesya [120]

Answer:

segment EH and segment E prime H prime both pass through the center of dilation.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Center of dilation is point (0.1), same as H. Both, E(0,5) and H(0,1) are placed over y-axis, then E' and H' are also located at y-axis.

After dilation, H' is placed at (0,1) because it coincides with the center of dilation

Distance between E and center of dilation is 4 units, then E' should be at 4*3=12 units from the center of dilation and over y-axis. Therefore, E' is placed at (0, 13)

So, segment E'H' goes from (0,1) to (0,13), and pass through the center of dilation, like segment EH.
