If each side of a square is increased by 6, the area is multiplied by 16

The original side length is 2. The area of the original square is 4.

This means the new side length, x+6, would be 8. The area of the new square is 64.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to know what the length of the side is, here is how you solve it:

x is the side length

therefore, is the area

if x+6 becomes the length and the area of this is 16

then we can say that

we can expand this to become

which becomes

If we factor it, we get

because length cannot be a negative number, the only option for the original side length is 2. The area of the original square is 4.

This means the new side length, x+6, would be 8. The area of the new square is 64.

answer: c

because if you look at the chart you can see a pattern and compare it to the question he simplify out your

but i think the formula is f(x)=6x

good luck on your studies! : )
