Answer:

11 inches by 11 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions of the original photo were 11 inches by 11 inches.

We are informed that the area of the reduced photo is 64 square inches and that In the equation (x – 3)^2 = 64, x represents the side measure of the original photo.

In order to solve for x, we shall first take square roots on both sides of the equation;

The square root of (x – 3)^2 is simply (x - 3).

The square root of 64 is ±8 but we ignore -8 since the dimensions of any figure must be positive.

Therefore, we have the following equation;

x - 3 = 8

x = 8 + 3

x = 11

How do you factor the expression<br> 20k+50
Aliun [14]
Answer is 10(2k+5)

-----------------------------------

Work Shown:

20k+50 = 10*2k + 10*5
20k+50 = 10(2k+5)

Note how we can distribute the 10 back in to check our work
10(2k+5) = 10(2k)+10(5) = 20k+50
so that confirms we have the right answer

Another thing to notice is that 10 is the largest factor that we can pull out of 20k and 50. The value 10 is the GCF (greatest common factor) of 20 and 50.
