Answer:

The dimensions of the original picture is 3 inches by 5 inches .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of original picture be x

Let the breadth of original picture be y

A scale drawing is made to enlarge a picture by using a scale factor of 3.

So, Length of enlarged picture = 3x

So, breadth of enlarged picture = 3y

Now we are given that . The enlarged picture is 9 inches by 15 inches.

So, 3x = 9                and       3y=15

      x = \frac{9}{3}                and       y=\frac{15}{3}

       x = 3                 and       y=5

Hence the dimensions of the original picture is 3 inches by 5 inches .

If -4 * -4 = 16, but -4^2 = -16, how is that possible?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

This is not possible

Step-by-step explanation:

The only way you get this is if you plug it into the calculator without placing parenthesis around -4

For example:

-4^2 = -16 while (-4)^2= 16

When doing math it is common knowledge that when two negative numbers are multiplied together the negative sign will cancel out and turn into a positive product.

----

Also -4*-4 is the same as -4^2 just written differently

\text{Consider the function}\\&#10;\\&#10;f(x)=\sqrt{7+x}\\&#10;\\&#10;\text{Since it is a radical function, so the term inside the radical must be positive}\\&#10;\\&#10;\text{so to find the domain of the function, we will solve the inequality,}\\&#10;\\&#10;7+x\geq 0\\&#10;\\&#10;\Rightarrow x\geq -7\\&#10;\\&#10;\text{hence the domain of the function is all real number greater than }x=-7.\\&#10;\\&#10;\text{or the domain of the function is:}\\&#10;\\&#10;x\geq -7
