Respuesta :

Answer:

98

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution 1, (quick)

When enlarging by a scale factor, the shape's area is multiplied by the scale factor squared.

3.5*7*2^2=98

This works because for a rectangle width x and length y, width 2x and length is 2y, area is 4xy compared to area xy originally.

Solution 2, (technical)

Scale factor of 2 means multiplying by 2

3.5^2=7

7*2=14

7*14=98
