Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the 1/2 on the left side to each term

1/2 * 10x + 1/2 * 4 = 12

Now multiplication first before addition on the left side.

5x + 2 = 12

Subtract 2 on both sides

5x = 10

Divide by 5 on both sides

x = 2

Check work

1/2(10(2) + 4) = 12

1/2(20 + 4) = 12

1/2 * 24 = 12

24/2 = 12 = 12

A painting with dimensions 10 inches by 14 inches is placed in a picture frame (of constant width), increasing its area to 221 s

vazorg [7]

Answer:

1.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

(10+2x)(14+2x) = 221

4x² + 48x - 81 = 0

4x² + 54x - 6x - 81 = 0

2x(2x + 27) - 3(2x + 27) = 0

(2x + 27)(2x - 3) = 0

x = -27/2, 3/2

x = 3/2 or 1½ or 1.5 inches
