Jan is enlarging the sketch shown on a photocopier. which could be the dimensions of her enlargement?

the figure shows a rectangle. the horizontal length of the rectangle is labeled as 3 inches and the vertical length of the rectangle is labeled as 2 inches.

a.
4 inches × 5 inches

b.
5 inches × 6 inches

c.
7 inches × 10.5 inches

d.
8 inches × 9 inches

C. 7 inches × 10.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Jan is enlarging the sketch shown on a photocopier. The figure shows a rectangle  3 inches long and  2 inches wide.

Hie enlarged rectangle must be similar to the given one. Similar rectangles have propotional sides, so

the width of the new rectangle = 2x inches

the length of the new rectangle = 3x inches.

Check all options:

A. If 2x = 4, then x = 2 and 3x = 6 - false

B. If 2x = 5, then x = 2.5 and 3x = 7.5 - false

C. If 2x = 7, then x= 3.5 amd 3x = 10.5 - true

D. If 2x = 8, then x = 4 and 3x = 12 - false

the entire expression should be subtracted from 30. to subtract the quantity, distribute the negative sign, which changes the signs on the terms. so, the –2 changes to positive and gets added to 30 instead of subtracted from it.

hope this ! ^w^
