The lengths of the top/bottom interior edges are $5-2=3$ inches (since there is 1 inch of frame to either side of the interior rectangular hole). Let the lengths of the left/right interior edges be $x$ inches. Then, the lengths of the left/right exterior edges are $x+2$ inches. The area of the frame is equal to the area of the frame rectangle minus the area of the hole. This is equal to $5\cdot(x+2)-3x=2x+10$. Since we are given that this area is 18 square inches, we have the equation $2x+10=18\Rightarrow x=4$. So the dimensions of the interior hole are $3\times4$. Thus, the sum of the four interior edges is $3+4+3+4=\boxed{14}$ inches.

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

$23,360

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation to determine how much carol originally invested in the account

First step is to divide £23517.60 by 1.025

= (23,517.60)/(1+.025)

= (23,517.60)/1.025

=$22,944

Second step is to add back the $1,000 withdrew

=$22,944+$1,000

=$23,944

Now let calculate how much carol originally invested in the account

$23,944=1.025P

Divide both side by 1.025

P=$23,944/1.025

P=$23,360

Therefore the amount that carol originally invested in the account is $23,360
