If a polygon has an area of 10 cm² and is dilated by a factor of 2, what will be the area of the dilated polygon?

Area depends on the product of sides,

so if the sides are shortened by a factor of 2, area will reduce by a factor of 4. (2×2)

new area = 10/4=2.5 cm²

there are 70 more legs than eyes at the dog show (196 – 126 = 70). dogs have two more legs than eyes, and humans have the same number of legs as eyes. thus 70 is twice the number of dogs at the show, so the number of dogs is half of 70, which is 35. to get the number of humans, subtract 35 from 63: 63 – 35 = 28.
