Let

x---------> the thickness of the frame in feet

At-------> Area of the mirror and the frame in square feet

we know that

At=19.25ft^{2} ------> equation 1

At=(3+2x)*(5+2x)\\ At=3*5+3*2x+5*2x+2x*2x\\ At=15+6x+10x+4x^{2} \\ At=4x^{2} +16x+15--------> equation 2

equate equation 1 and equation 2

19.25=4x^{2} +16x+15\\ 4x^{2} +16x+15-19.25=0\\ 4x^{2} +16x-4.25=0

therefore

the answer is the option

C. 4x2 + 16x - 4.25 = 0

The answer is letter <span>C. 4x2 + 16x - 4.25 = 0. 
</span>
The area of the mirror and frame together is 19.25 square feet. You deduct that with the area of the mirror (3ft x 5ft = 15ft) and you have 4.25 square feet.

Stells [14]

Answer:

Functions can be symmetrical about the y-axis, which means that if we reflect their graph about the y-axis we will get the same graph. ... These are two types of symmetry we call even and odd functions.
