The lengths of the sides of a square are multiplied by 3.5. How is the ratio of the areas related to the ratio of the side lengths? A. The ratio of the areas is the square of the ratio of the side lengths.
B. The ratio of the areas is the same as the ratio of the side lengths.
c. The ratio of the areas is the cube of the ratio of the side lengths.
d. The ratio of the areas is the square root of the ratio of the side lengths.

A The ratio of the areas is the square of the ratio of the side lengths.

Step-by-step explanation:

10  x 3.5 = 35 and would be the same size each

35 x 35 = 1225

Ratio of areas = 10x10 and 10x3.5 x 10 x 3.5 = 100 : 1225 = 4: 49

Therefore just from doing this we can find easily by referring back to ratio above shown.

D IS NOT TRUE This means the ratio of the areas (1225) is the square root of the ratio (sqrt1225=35) of the side lengths (35:35) is not true

sqrt 1225 is 35 and becomes a square root of the area

Where matching this to ratio of sides is not true as 35:35= 1:1 and the ratio to the sides are not the same as ratio of two areas. But when we square we get the answer right.

when we cross multiply (division) we find find the ratio of areas 100:1225 is NOT TRUE AND NOT SAME AS ratio 10:35

We therefore left with DIVIDING THE ratio SIDES AS SIMPLIFIED into the Areas ABOVE to show-

1225/49 = 25 same   here we have the area same ratio as

100/4 = 25 same

10:35 = 3.5^2  + 3.5^2 =12.50 + 12.50 = 25

A IS TRUE. as when we square the ratio 1=3.5 and add them together 1=3.5^2 +3.5^2 we get answer = 25

step-by-step explanation:

equation

you are asked to write the equation

  expression = 0

using the given expression. when you do that, you have

  2x^2-2x-12 = 0

factoring

you can see that each of the coefficients is even, so a factor of 2 can be removed immediately.

  2(x^2 -x -6) = 0

if you multiply the binomials (x+a)(x+b), you get

  (x +a)(x +b) = x^2 +(a+b)x +ab

this tells you the coefficient of x is the sum of two factors of the constant term. here, that means -1 is the sum of two factors of -6. we want to know those factors so we can factor the trinomial.

  -6 = -1×6 = -2×3 = -3×2 = -6×1

the factor pair that sums to -1 is {-3, 2}, so our factorization is

  2(x -3)(x +2) = 0

solutions

the solutions to this equation are the values of x that make the product zero. a product is zero only when only of the factors of the product is zero. here, that means

  x - 3 = 0

  x = 3 . . . add 3 to both sides of the equation

or

  x +2 = 0

  x = -2 . . . add -2 to both sides of the equation

the solutions to the equation are x=3 or x=-2. both of these values of x satisfy the equation—they make it be true.

126 maybe. sorry
