Mikaela places a frame around a print that measures 10 inches by 10 inches. The area of just the frame itself is 69 square inches. What is the width (x) of the frame

1.5 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent width of the frame.

We have been given that Mikaela places a frame around a print that measures 10 inches by 10 inches. The area of just the frame itself is 69 square inches.

The area of the print would be square inches.

The side of frame with print would be because the width will be on both sides.

Area of side of frame with print would be .

Area of the frame will be equal to area of side of frame with print minus area of print.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

Let us solve for x.

Take square root of both sides:

Since width cannot be negative, therefore, width of the frame is 1.5 inches.

x = 12

y = 15

step-by-step explanation:

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
