Answer:
the answer is 32
Step-by-step explanation: divide the product by the number that is being mutiplied
Part (a)
The picture alone, without the frame, is 16 by 20
When accounting for the frame, the larger rectangle is 16+2x by 20+2x
We add up all four sides to get the perimeter
(16+2x)+(20+2x)+(16+2x)+(20+2x)
8x+72
or you can use this perimeter of a rectangle formula
P = 2(L+W)
P = 2(20+2x+16+2x)
P = 2(4x+36)
P = 8x+72
Answer: 8x+72
=========================================
Part (b)
Multiply the length and width to find the area of the rectangle.
area = length*width
A = L*W
A = (20+2x)*(16+2x)
A = 20(16+2x) + 2x(16+2x)
A = 320+40x + 32x + 4x^2
A = 4x^2 + 72x + 320
Answer: 4x^2 + 72x + 320
=========================================
Part (c)
Plug x = 2 into the perimeter equation found in part (a)
P = 8x+72
P = 8*2+72
P = 16+72
P = 88
Now plug x = 2 into the area equation found in part (b)
A = 4x^2 + 72x + 320
A = 4(2)^2 + 72(2) + 320
A = 4(4) + 72(2) + 320
A = 16 + 144 + 320
A = 160+320
A = 480
-------------
Answers:
Perimeter = 88 inches
Area = 480 square inches
Im sorry wish i could help but the equation is a little confusing give me a few moments and i will figure out the answer okay?
