Aphotograph of a child has a width 2 inches longer than its length. the proud parents decide the photo is cute enough that they want a larger version. the picture is made bigger by increasing both its length and its width by 2 inches, its area increases by 20 square inches. what are the dimensions of the original picture? use the 5 step method and show the check

step-by-step explanation:

de-gf

hj=3x+20

ji=15x-64

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
