Answer:
15 cm is the new dimensions of new photograph
Step-by-step explanation:
initial dimension of shorter side = 8 cm
initial dimension of longer side = 10 cm
final dimension ofshorter side = 12 cm
finial dimension of longer side = x cm
The enlargement always ensure the aspect ratio
aspect ratio = lonter side/shorter side
equating, =
Solving for x,
10 × 12 = 8 × x
/\
that says 10 x 12
longer side is 15cm

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1). 10 =
10(7 + x) = 1 + 7x
70 + 10x = 7x + 1
10x - 7x = 1 - 70
3x = -69
x = -23
2). 0.2 =
0.2(12 + x) = 6 + 2x
2.4 + 0.2x = 6 + 2x
2.4 - 6 = 2x - 0.2x
1.8x = -3.6
x = -2
3). 0.8 =
0.8(x + 0.5) = x
0.8x + 0.4 = x
x - 0.8x = 0.4
0.2x = 0.4
x = 2
4). 3.5 =
3.5(0.5 - x) = 4 + 2x
1.75 - 3.5x = 4 + 2x
-3.5x - 2x = 4 - 1.75
-5.5x = 2.25
x = -
x = -
