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

Help me with Alims sales tax problem
wlad13 [49]
First you need to find the amount for each of the items, then total it up:

T-shirts> 9.50 x 2 = 19
Socks> 7.95 x 3 = 23.85
Shoes> 49.95
Total: 19 + 23.85 + 49.95 = $92.80

Next find the tax:

(to find the taxes you multiply the total by the percent)
92.8 x 0.06 = 5.57
-- then add the amount to your item total
92.8 + 5.57 = 98.37

~OR~

You could multiply the item total by 1.06 so that you wouldn't have to add to taxes to the previous total because it is already part of the equation 

92.8 x 1.06 = 98.37

The lengths of a particular snake are approximately normally distributed with a given mean Mu = 15 in. and standard deviation Si
Liula [17]

Answer: 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let see that the snakes that are longer than 16.6 in are lomger than mean at 16.6-15=1.6 in

1.6:Sigma=1.6: 0.8=2 that means that all other snakes but longer than 16.6 in are inside +-2 Sigma. It is known that for normal distribution 95.4% of all snakes are inside +-2 Sigma

That means that 100%-95.4%=4.6% or about 5% of the snakes are longer than 16.6 in
