Originally a rectangle has dimensions 12in by 8in. if the same amount increases on both sides, the area is doubled find the new dimensions

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the increase in the size of the length and breath be 'x'.

The area of the rectangle = 12in × 8in

=96 in²

From the question,

(12+x)(8+x)=96×2 in²

or, 96+12x+8x+x²= 192

or, x²+20x+96-192=0

or, x²+20x-96=0

or, x²+24x-4x-96=0

or, x(x+24)-4(x+24)=0

or, (x-4)(x+24)=0

Either, Or,

x-4=0 x+24=0

Therefore, or, x= –24 (Which is impossible)

x=4

So the new dimensions are 12+4=16 inch and 8+4=12 inch.

step-by-step explanation: i dont

14 ft 7 inches

step-by-step explanation:

since each model inch corresponds to 25 real inches, 7 model inches will correspond to

7×25" = 175"

at 12" per foot, that is 14 feet, 7 inches.
