Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok im not sure the answer yet so ima work on it at the same time while im explaining it. (The answer will probably be near the end)
We can use the elimination method to eliminate y out. To do that we multiply the first equation by 3.
6x+3y=-12
Now just subtract it from the other equation.
6x+3y=-12
5x+3y=-6
***x=-6***
Usually after doing the elimination method you will have to solve for x but in this case its already solved for you. If you want to find y now you just take the first equation and fill x with -6 and solve for y.
2(-6)+y=-4
-12+y=-4
y=8

Answer:
Part a) The quadratic function is 
Part b) The value of x is
Part c) The photo and frame together are
wide
Step-by-step explanation:
Part a) Write a quadratic function to find the distance from the edge of the photo to the edge of the frame
Let
x----> the distance from the edge of the photo to the edge of the frame
we know that

Part b) What is the value of x?
Solve the quadratic equation 
The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form
is equal to
in this problem
we have

so
substitute in the formula

-----> the solution
Part c) How wide are the photo and frame together?
