Alayna is hanging a picture frame in the center of a wall that is 8 feet wide. If the picture frame is 22 inches wide, how far w

ill each side of the picture frame be from the edge of the wall (in inches)? First, estimate the amount and then find the exact measurement. In two or more complete sentences, explain how you solved the problem. You may include a diagram in your explanation, if you wish.

Answer:The wall is 8 ft wide and the picture frame is about 2 ft wide. The sides of the picture frame will be about (8-2)/4 = 3 ft from each wall.

However, since the picture frame is actually 22 inches wide, the exact distance would be (8*12 - 22)/2 = (96 - 22)/2 = 74/2 = 37inches (3 ft 1 inch) from the wall.

Solve the problem by first subtracting the width of the picture frame from the width of the wall. That will give the length of the wall that is not covered by the frame, or the "free length". Since the picture is centered in the width of the wall, there will be an equal distance from the frame to the wall on each side of the frame. Divide the free length by 2 to get the distance from the frame to the wall.    Hope its helps ;)

Answer:

  34.5 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume you want to find the area of the shaded region. (The actual question is not visible here.)

The area of the triangle (including the rectangle) is given by the formula ...

  A = 1/2bh

The figure shows the base of the triangle is 11 m, and the height is 1+5+3 = 9 m. So, the triangle area is ...

  A = (1/2)(11 m)(9 m) = 49.5 m^2

The rectangle area is the product of its length and width:

  A = LW

The figure shows the rectangle is 5 m high and 3 m wide, so its area is ...

  A = (5 m)(3 m) = 15 m^2

The shaded area is the difference between the triangle area and the rectangle area:

  shaded area = 49.5 m^2 - 15 m^2 = 34.5 m^2

The shaded region has an area of 34.5 square meters.

Answer:

7) a = 65; b = 50

8) c = 125; d = 55; e = 52

9) f = 105

Step-by-step explanation:

7)

a = 65

b + 130 = 180

b = 50

8)

c = 125

d + 125 = 180

d = 55

e = 52

9)

(180 - f) + 32 + (180 - 107) = 180

180 - f + 32 + 180 - 107 = 180

-f + 285 = 180

-f = -105

f = 105
