Answer:

5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = width of frame.

The width of the frame is added all around the painting, so you must add 2x to the length of the painting and 2x to the width of the painting to find the total length and width including the frame.

painting length: 30

total length: 2x + 30

painting width: 20

total width: 2x + 20

total area = LW

total area = (2x + 30)(2x + 20)

total area = 1200

(2x + 30)(2x + 20) = 1200

(x + 15)(x + 10) = 300

x^2 + 10x + 15x + 150 = 300

x^2 + 25x - 150 = 0

(x - 5)(x + 30) = 0

x - 5 = 0  or  x + 30 = 0

x = 5  or x = -30

The width of the frame cannot be a negative number, so we discard the solution x = -30.

Answer: 5 cm

What is the image point of (-8,-1) after a translation left 3 units and up 4 units<br>​
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

(-11, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you move -8 to the left its on the x-axis and it's on the negative side. Moving it to the left would mean the number is lower than -8. Moving it to the left 3 units would mean its -11. When you move -1 up 4 units it's on the y axis on the negative side in the beginning. Moving it up would mean the number is higher than -1. Moving -1 up 4 units would mean its 3.
