Question

A square photo has a side length of 0.17 foot. The photo is enlarged by doubling the dimensions. Then it is enlarged again by tripling the new dimensions.

Answer 1

Calculate the side length of the enlarged picture

Answer:

Hence, final picture will have a side length of 1.02 foot

Explanation:

Side length of square photo, s = 0.17

Original dimension = (0.17 by 0.17)

Enlarged photo = double the original dimension:

2 * (0.17 * 0.17)

(0.34 * 0.34)

Second enlargement = Tripling the new dimension:

3 * (0.34 * 0.34)

(1.02 * 1.02)

Hence, final enlarged dimension = (1.02 * 1.02)

Hence, final picture will have a side length of 1.02 foot
