\n" ); document.write( "I assume the intention is that the sides are 10 times the original length,
\n" ); document.write( "since the sides cannot be 10 times the original area.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "L=original length; W=original width; A=original area=8 sq cm; $\"A%5BN%5D\"$ =new area
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( " $\"LW=8cm%5E2\"$ Use this to substitute for LW
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%2810L%29%2810W%29=A%5BN%5D\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"100%28LW%29=A%5BN%5D\"$ Substitute for LW.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"100%288cm%5E2%29=A%5BN%5D\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"800cm%5E2=A%5BN%5D\"$
\n" ); document.write( "ANSWER: The area of the new rectangle will be 800 square centimeters. \n" ); document.write( "
