ANSWER
83

EXPLANATION
This method makes use of a system of equations

Let x be the tens-place digit
Let y be the ones-place digit
(therefore, x and y are positive integers between 0 and 9 inclusive as they represent digits)

Then this two digit number is 10x + y
"Multiplying it by itself gives 6889" implies

(10x + y)(10x + y) = 6889

or just

(10x + y)² = 6889

Square root both sides.
Note that √(10x + y)² = 10x + y since x and y are positive and √6889 is 83

10x + y = 83

Now use the other information to make another equation
The sum of its digits is 11 so

x + y = 11

We have a system of equations as x and y must satisfy both equations for the question conditions to be met:

10x + y = 83 ... (I)
x + y = 11 ... (II)

This can be solved using elimination. Multiplying (II) by -1 to aim to get rid of y, we get

10x + y = 83 ... (I)
- x - y = -11 ... (II)

Adding the two equations, we get

(10x - x) + (y - y) = (83 - 11)
which is
9x = 72

Divide both sides by 9 to get

x = 8

This is the tens digit.
Can use x + y = 11 ... (II) to figure out value of y,

x + y = 11
⇒ y = 11 - x
⇒ y = 11 - 8
⇒ y = 3

x = 8 and y = 3
x is the tens-place digit
y is the ones-place digit

The number is 83

If a number multiplied by itself is 6889

, the number is $\sqrt{6889}=83$ .

If we didn't know that, consider our two digit number whose square ends in 9. Its ones digits must be 3 or 7, because those are the ones whose squares will end in 9. So we try 83^2

and

, and 83 works.

Answer from: Quest

$2^{2x+11}=3^{x-31}$

take the logarithm of both sides (the base of the log doesn't matter):

$\ln2^{2x+11}=\ln3^{x-31}$

apply the exponent property - this says that $\ln a^b=b\ln a$ :

$(2x+11)\ln2=(x-31)\ln3$

distribute the log terms on both sides:

$(2\ln2)x+11\ln2=(\ln3)x-31\ln3$

group like terms together:

$(2\ln2-\ln3)x=-11\ln2-31\ln3$

divide through both sides by the coefficient on $x$ :

$x=-\dfrac{11\ln2+31\ln3}{2\ln2-\ln3}$

you can do some additional rewriting here using the properties of the logarithm to simplify things if you like:

$x=-\dfrac{\ln2^{11}+\ln3^{31}}{\ln2^2-\ln3}$

$x=-\dfrac{\ln2^{11}3^{31}}{\ln\frac43}$

$x=-\log_{4/3}2^{11}3^{31}$
