A certain square has sides of length X. If the length of each side is doubled, then which of the following represents teh areea of the resulting square, in terms of x?
a.x^2
b.2x^2
c.4x
d.4x^2
e.x^2+4
qa is d
I choose b, heres why:
Plugging in numbers for the original square say x =2 the new square is x=4, so 4x4=16. Now, going into the answer choices plug in x as 2 and look for 16. choice d gives 64 when choice b gives 16. Why is d correct then?
posted this question before but coulnt find it.
