Answer: B. 9 inches by 9 inches

x = -13 or x = 9

x cannot be negative, so

x = 9 inches

Therefore, the dimensions of the cropped photo is 9 inches by 9 inches.

Liliana decides to crop a square photo 2 inches on each side to fit it into a frame. The area of the original photo was 121 square inches. In the equation (x + 2)^2 = 121, x represents the side measure of the cropped photo.

What are the dimensions of the cropped photo?

A. 8 inches by 8 inches

B. 9 inches by 9 inches

C. 12 inches by 12 inches

D. 13 inches by 13 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

(x+2)^2 = 121. ....1

x = size of cropped picture.

To solve for x,

From eqn1

x^2 + 4x + 4 = 121

x^2 + 4x - 117 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation gives;

(x+13)(x-9) = 0

x = -13 or x = 9

x cannot be negative, so

x = 9 inches

Therefore, the dimensions of the cropped photo is 9 inches by 9 inches.

Answer:

B. 9 inches by 9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

he formula for the area of a square is length x width

For a square the length and the width are same therefore it is  

length x length = (length)²  (let’s call this first equation)

also (x + 2 )²= 121        (let’s call this second equation)

To form an equation for the cropped picture from the original picture

Length = (cut off length + new length) (third equation)

Length = ( 2 + x)           fourth equation

assuming the new lenght is x

Since 2 is the cut off length from each sides

Lets substitute first equation into second equation then we will have

Lenght² = 121

Length = √121

Length = 11

Substitute into fourth equation

Length = 11 = (x+2)

X+2 =11

X= 11 - 2

X=9

Answer:

See below ~

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the graph,

  1. <u>f(-3)</u>
  • f(-3) = 0

   2. <u>f(4)</u>

  • f(4) = -3

   3. <u>x when f(x) = 5</u>

  • f(x) = 5
  • x = 0

   4. <u>x when f(x) = -3</u>

  • f(x) = -3
  • x = ±4

Cone A has a surface area of 384 ft2 and Cone B has a surface area of 96 ft?. What is the ratio of their volume?
ELEN [110]

Answer:

8 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratio of sides = a : b, then

ratio of area = a² : b²

ratio of volumes = a³ : b³

Given

ratio of areas = 384 : 96 = 4 : 1 ← in simplest form, then

ratio of sides = \sqrt{4} : \sqrt{1} = 2 : 1

Hence

ratio of volumes = 2³ : 1³ = 8 : 1
