<span>You are given a rectangular picture measuring 8 inches by 7 inches. Also, Alistair wants this to be framed and that the total area is 34 square inches. The width of the frame is x inches. To solve the dimension of the frame with value of x we have:
We have to assume that x here will be equal to all sides of the frame and so, using the area of the rectangle, we can model the equation like this:
A = LW (where A is the area, L is the length and W is the width)
36 = (8 - x)(7 - x)
36 = 56 - 8x - 7x + x</span>²
<span>x</span>² - 15x +20 = 0 → model of our equation and in quadratic form
x² - 15x + 20 = 0
using a calculator, x = 1.48 inches

3.Use the equation you created in part A to find the width of the picture frame</span>
The answer would be x ≠ 0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First start with the left side, doing distributive property
So... -2(x) = -2x and -2(5) = -10 Therefore on the left side you now have -2x -10
Next do the same on the right side
-2(x) = - 2x and -2(-2) = 4 so you have -2x + 4 + 5 and you add 4 and 5, leaving you with -2x + 9
Now that you have simplified both sides the problem now looks like this:
-2x - 10 = -2x + 9
Because you have equal terms on both sides (-2) those cancel out so you have -10 = 9
Just from looking at this we know that the statement is false because -1o does not equal 9
*The symbol, "≠" means not equal to"
