Answer:

Width=13cm

Length=18cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Width of the Initial Photograph=9cm

Length of the Initial Photograph=14cm

If width and length are increased by an equal amount, say x

New Width=9+x

New Length=14+x

Area of the new photo is 108 square centimeters greater than the area of the original photo.

Area of Original Photo=14*9=126cm²

Aeea of the New Photo=126+108=234cm²

Therefore:

(9+x)(14+x)=234

126+9x+14x+x²-234=0

x²+23x-108=0

x²+27x-4x-108=0

x(x+27)-4(x+27)=0

(x+27)(x-4)=0

x+27=0 or x-4=0

x=-27 or x=4

Since x≠-27

x=4cm

The dimensions of the new photo are:

Width=9+x=9+4=13cm

Length=14+x=14+4=18cm

Before a renovation a movie theater had 117 seats after the renovation theater had 173 what is the approximate percentage increa
aev [14]

Answer:

47.86%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of seats in a movie theater Before a renovation = 117

Total number of seats in a movie theater after a renovation = 173

We need to find the percentage increase of the number of seats. It can be calcualted as :

\%=\dfrac{\text{|final number-initial number|}}{\text{initial number}}\times 100\\\\=\dfrac{173-117}{117}\times 100\\\\=47.86\%

So, the increase in percentage is 47.86%.
