A picture measuring 2inches by 3inches is placed inside a frame. the width between the picture and the frame is equal around the entire picture. if the area of the frame and the picture is 72 square inches, what is the width of the frame? Thanks!

answer: a

step-by-step explanation:

if xy ~ yz therefore xy would be the same length as yz

pentagon

step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates   a(5, -2), b(3,-1),c(-4,-4) d(-3,8) and e(-1,4) forms the vertices of the polygon when they are connected in order.

in order to classify that which polygon is it with the given coordinates, first count the number of vertices and then count the number of sides it can make with these vertices.

since, the given coordinates have five vertices, therefore, it will make five sides. moreover, pentagon is regular in nature therefore it will be convex.

now, a polygon with five sides is known as pentagon, therefore, the given polygon is the pentagon.

step-by-step explanation: given equation a = h(b 1+b 2)

also we are given values of a, h and b 1 as :

a = 16, h = 4, and b 1 = 3.

in order to solve it for b 2, we need to plug the given values of   a, h and b 1 .

therefore, plugging values of   a, h and b 1   in given equation, we get

16 = 4( 3 + b 2)

first dividing both sides by 4, we get

4 = 3 + b 2

subtracting 3 from both sides, we get

4 -3 = 3 -3 + b 2

1 = b 2.
