Answer:
x > 36 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the width of the picture frame.
Then x + 6 = the length of the frame.
The formula for the perimeter P of a rectangle is'
P = 2l + 2w.
So, the condition is
2l + 2w > 156
2(x + 6) + 2x > 156 Distribute the 2
2x + 12 + 2x > 156 Combine like terms
4x + 12 > 156 Subtract 12 from each side
4x > 144 Divide each side by 4
x > 36
The perimeter of the picture frame will be greater than 156 in if x > 36 in.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
All the variables on the right are being multiplied together then the whole mess is being divided by 2. Let's get rid of the 2 first. The undoing of division is multiplication, so we will begin by multiplying both sides by 2 to get
Next we will move the m. The undoing of multiplication is division. So we divide both sides by m to get
The undoing of a square is to take the square root, so we will do that to both sides giving us, finally
