Answer:

  2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the width of the frame, then the overall dimensions are ...

  (50 +2x) by (60 +2x)

so the area is ...

  3456 = (50 +2x)(60+2x)

  x^2 +55x -114 = 0 . . . . . . . divide by 4, subtract the left side

  (x +57)(x -2) = 0 . . . . . . . . . factor

Solutions to this are x=2 and x=57 (extraneous).

The width of the frame is 2 inches.

Answer: second option

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a quadratic equation is:

ax^2+bx+c=0

Then, to write the quadratic equation given in the problem in standard form, you must substract 1 from both sides of the equation. Then you have:

2x^2+5x-1=0

Given the quadratic equation above, to find the value of b^2-4ac  you must substitute:

a=2; b=5 and c=-1 into b^2-4ac

Thenrefore, you obtain the following result:

5^2-4(2)(-1)=33
