Joaquin has created a small treasure map that is in the shape of a square. He decides to make a larger version of the map, and on this new map he increases each side by 6 inches. The area of this larger version of the map is 121 square inches. What are the dimensions of his original, smaller map?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The length of one side of the treasure map is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the larger version of the map's area is 121 square inches, each side of the larger map is 11 since 121 is 11*11 (the "/" means divide and the * means multiply). So if Joaquin increased each side by 6 inches, 11-6 is 5. So, the answer is 5 inches.
