Question 347084: An artist wishes to frame a picture with 84 inches of framing material. How wide will the frmae be if its width is 75% of its length? Thank you Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! let length = x
width = o.75 x
Perimeter = 2*(L+W)
84= 2*(x+0.75x)
42=1.75x
x= 42/1.75
length = 24
width = 18
...
CHECK
18+18+24+24=84
