Reduce a 24 cm by 36 cm photo to 3/4 original size.
The most logical way to do this is to keep the width-to-height ratio the same: It is 24/36, or 2/3. The original photo has an area of (24 cm)(36 cm) = 864 cm^2.
Let's reduce that to 3/4 size: Mult. 864 cm^2 by (3/4). Result: 648 cm^2.
We need to find new L and new W such that W/L = 2/3 and WL = 648 cm^2.
From the first equation we get W = 2L/3. Thus, WL = 648 cm^2 = (2L/3)(L).
Solve this last equation for L^2, and then for L:
2L^2/3 = 648, or (2/3)L^2 = 648. Thus, L^2 = (3/2)(648 cm^2) = 972 cm^2.
Taking the sqrt of both sides, L = + 31.18 cm. Then W must be 2/3 of that, or W = 20.78 cm.
Check: is LW = (3/4) of the original 864 cm^2? YES.

Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
When working with balanced expressions (stuff on both sides of the equal sign), "what you do to one side, you do to the other", which keeps it balanced.
The first thing we notice is the exponent 1/4, which is one both sides, so we can get rid of it on both sides by using the <u>reverse operation</u>.
The reverse of exponents is <u>square root</u>.
![(4x + 10)^{\frac{1}{4}} = (9 + 7x)^{\frac{1}{4}}\\\sqrt[\frac{1}{4}]{(4x + 10)^{\frac{1}{4}}} = \sqrt[\frac{1}{4}]{(9 + 7x)^{\frac{1}{4}}}\\\\4x + 10 = 9 + 7x](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%284x%20%2B%2010%29%5E%7B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%7D%20%3D%20%289%20%2B%207x%29%5E%7B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%7D%5C%5C%5Csqrt%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5D%7B%284x%20%2B%2010%29%5E%7B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%7D%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5D%7B%289%20%2B%207x%29%5E%7B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%7D%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C4x%20%2B%2010%20%3D%209%20%2B%207x)
Isolate x to solve. Separate the variables and non-variables.
4x + 10 = 9 + 7x
4x - 4x + 10 = 9 + 7x - 4x Subtract 4x from both sides
10 = 9 + 3x
10 - 9 = 9 - 9 + 3x Subtract 9 from both sides
1 = 3x Divide both sides by 3 to isolate x
x = 1/3 Answer
