Question 486406: A picture frame has a total perimeter of 3 meters. The height of the frame is 2/3 times its width.
a. Draw a diagram that represents the problem. Identify the width as w and the height as h.
b. Write h in the terms of w and write an equation for the perimeter in terms of w.
c. Find the dimensions of the picture frame. Answer by cleomenius(959) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2w + 2L = 3
L = 2/3 w.
2(2/3)x + 2x = 3 1/3x = 3
x = 0.9 m the width
2/6 x = 0.6 m the length
1.2m + 1.8m = 3.0 m, for the check.
