Adjusted gross income (AGI) is a person's
total gross income minus specific deductions. So, Florence can deduct an amount
of: .5 or 50% of 197130 = 98,565 is the maximum deduction which is less that
actual amount given for the charitable contributions.
The total area of the frame is therefore 2(4x) + 2(4)(x-8) = 8x + 8x - 64 = 16x - 64
For this case we must solve each of the equations proposed:
A) 
We apply distributive property to the terms within parentheses:

Subtracting 6 from both sides of the equation we have:

Dividing between -12 on both sides of the equation:

B) 
We apply distributive property to the terms within parentheses:

We add 5m on both sides of the equation:

Dividing between 2 on both sides of the equation:

C) 
We apply distributive property to the terms within parentheses:

We subtract 14 from both sides of the equation:

Dividing between -7 on both sides of the equation:

D) -
We apply distributive property to the terms within parentheses:

We add 28 to both sides of the equation:

Dividing between -21 on both sides of the equation:

Answer:

8 1/2 = 8.5
10 3/4 = 10.75
9 3/4 = 9.75
8.5 + 10.75 + 9.75 = 29 inches in total <==
