Answer: 168 inches.
Explanation:
First thing you must always do when solving word problems is read closely, and take note of any number.
In this case, the first thing we must do is find the scale factor.
For this, we use one of the dimensions. We will use the width of the photo.
We have then:
k = 132/11
k = 12
Then, we look for the value of the height of the new photo. To do this, we multiply the scale factor by the original dimension.
We have then:
14k = 14 (12) = 168
Thus, 168 inches is your answer! :)
Hope this helps! :)
Start at 4 and since it a negative go down one and over one
Twice a increased by the cube of a equals b :
2a + a^3 = b
I believe you need to solve this using the quadratic formula!
To begin, this is what it is:
x= -b ± <span>√ b^2 - 4ac / 2a
Just plug in what you have in your problem...
2 being a, 13 being b, and -24 being c.
So we get:
x= -13 </span>± <span>√13^2 - 4(2)(-24) / 2(2)
x= -13 </span><span>± √169 - 8 (-24) / 4</span>
<span>x= -13 <span>± √169 + 192 / 4</span>
x= -13 </span>± √<span>361 / 4
The square root of 361 is 19.
So you have: -13 </span><span>± 19 / 4.
Here's where you take the equation </span>-13 <span>± 19 and put the addition and subtraction sign to use.
-13 - 19 = -32
and
-13 + 19 = 6
Now all is left to do is divide the two numbers by 4.
-32/4 = -8
and
6/4 = 3/2
x = -8, 3/2</span>
