Find the perimeter of the painting because that's what the frame will be:
2(5)+2(6)=P
10+12=P
22=P
Multiply 22 by 5 because the painting has a perimeter of 22 feet and each one foot will cost 5 dollars

german

To solve this we need to use Pythagorean theorem

${x}^{2} + {14}^{2} = (9 + x) ^{2} \\ {x}^{2} + 196 = 81 + 18x + {x}^{2} \\ 18x = 115 \\ x = 6.3(8) \simeq6.4$

Answer: x≈6.4
