Given dimension of photograph = 25cm * 20cm

So area of photograph = 500cm²

Now, let the width of frame border be = x

So, dimensions of photograph + frame= (25 + 2x)*(20 + 2x)

As given, the area of frame is same as photograph , so

Area of picture + frame = 1000cm  ²

Hence, area equals

4x^{2}+90x+500=1000

4x^{2}+90x-500=0

2x^{2}+45x-250=0

Solving this quadratic equation,

For the quadratic equation of the form ax^{2}+bx+c=0 , solution is:

x1,2 = \frac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

Now putting a=2, b=45, c= -250 and solving he above equation, we get two values of x.

x = -27.11 (discard it as it is negative)   and

x = 4.61 cm

Hence the dimensions of the frame are:

20+2x = 20+2(4.61) = 29.22 cm

25+2x = 25+2(4.61) = 34.22 cm

What is the simplest form of the expression 6x(x − 4) − 16x2 − (9x − 1)
Sedbober [7]
Use distributie property which is
a(b+c)=ab+ac
therefor
6x(x-4)=6x^2-24x

distribute the negative 1 infroont of the (9x-1)
-1(9x-1)=-9x+1
now we have

6x^2-24x-16x^2-9x+1
gropu like terms
6x^2-16x^2-24x-9x+1
add like terms
-10x^2-33x+1 is simplest form

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

$126,980

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation C = 2.32N + 34,180 where 'C' is the cost of raising a child and 'N' is the income.  If the Corlone family has an income of $40,000, you can use this value for 'N' and solve for 'C':

C = 2.32(40,000) + 34,180

C = 92,800 + 34,180

C = $126,980
