<span>Let x be the
width of the frame.
Area of the picture is 5*7 = 35 sq in</span>
Area of the
frame given as the same, frame = 35 sq in also
<span>
Therefore the total area (picture & frame) will be 70 sq in</span>
<span>
A simple equation would be made and it will look like this: (7+2x) * (5+2x) =
70
</span>
<span>Using the FOIL
method
35 + 14x + 10x + 4x^2 = 70
4x^2 + 24x + 35 - 70 = 0; subtract 70 from both sides:
4x^2 + 24x - 35 = 0</span>
<span>
unluckily this will not factor easily, so we should use the quadratic equation:
where: a = 4; b = 24; c = -35</span><span>
</span><span> x = -b sqrt b^2 – 4*a*c divided by 2 * a</span><span>
x
= -24</span> ±<span>
sqrt 24^2 -4*4*(-35) divided by 2*4
x = -24 </span>±<span>sqrt 576 -
-(560) divided by 8
x = -24 </span>± sqrt 576 + 560 divided by 8<span>
x = -24 </span>± sqrt1136
divided by 8<span>
x = -24 + 33.7046 divided by 8
x = 9.7046 divided by 8
x =1.213 inches is the answer</span>

Answer:
The equation is 56x - 13 = x - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say our 'number' is x. If it says it's 56 times our number, it's 56x. Minus 13, which is 56x - 13. If it is equal than 6 less than the number, then it is x - 6.
So the equation is 56x - 13 = x - 6
Ignore this answer its wrong. I forgot to not save it. Sorry for the confusion. I wanted to delete this answer but I can't.
Answer:
Cost of ordering t-shirts the same at both sides is 7
The cost is $85
Step-by-step explanation:
let x equal the number of tshirts
Hence:
15 + 10x = 50 + 5x
10x-5x= 50-15
5x = 35
35/5x
x = 7
Therefore the cost of ordering t-shirts the same at both sides is 7
The cost is $85
