Question 1009888: can you help me figure this question out:
The bill at the craft store for six picture frames and six pieces of matting is more than the $100 that Ginny has in her purse for this purchase. If the picture frames cost $12.45 each, how much does each piece of matting cost?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! The bill at the craft store for six picture frames and six pieces of matting is more than the $100 that Ginny has in her purse for this purchase. If the picture frames cost $12.45 each, how much does each piece of matting cost?
----
6f + 6m > p + 100
----
f = 12.45
------
6*12.45 + 6m > p + 100
74.70 + 6m > p + 100
6m > p + 25.30
----
m > $[(p+25.3)/6] (cost of each matting)
------------
Cheers,
