Let
x-----------> <span>uniform width surrounding the picture

we know that
(10+2x)*(12+2x)=224-----> 120+20x+24x+4x</span>²=224
4x²+44x+120-224=0
4x²+44x-104=0

using a graph tool-----> to resolve the second order equation
see  the attached figure

the solution is
x=2 in

the answer is
2 inches

Find the distance between the points 3,7 and 15, 12 on the coordinate plane?
lana [24]
\text{Distance } = \sqrt{ (x_2 -x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}

\sqrt{ \left( 15 -  3\right)^2 +  \left( 12 -  7\right)^2}\\\\\sqrt{\left( 12\right)^2  + \left( 5\right)^2}\\\\\sqrt{    144  +   25 }\\\\\\ \sqrt{   169 } = \boxed{\bf{ 13}}

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

$227

Step-by-step explanation:

First we can add up the withdrawals(63, 74, and 39) which is 176. We can then subtract 176 from 212 to get 36.

So, after the withdrawals Steven has 36 dollars.

We can add the deposits together to get 191. We can then add 191 to 36 to get 227.
