Question 1054438: The time T necessary to make an enlargement of a photo of negative varies directly as the area A of the enlargement. If 180 seconds are required to make a 5-by-7 enlargement, find the time required for 6-by-6 enlargement. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 180 seconds=k*35 (the square inches in 5*7)
k=180/35
x seconds=k*36=(180/35)*36
x=185.14 seconds.
