  1. let the width of the photo be x in
    then the length of the photo is 128/x in

    width of poster = x+8
    length of poster = 128/x + 8

    Area = (x+8)(128/x + 8)
    = 128 + 8x + 1024/x + 64
    d(area) = 8 - 1024/x^2
    = 0 for a min of area

    8 = 1024/x
    8x^2 = 1024
    x^2 =128
    x = √128 = 8√2

    carry on
