Carlotta is helping her grandfather center a large framed picture on his living room wall. The
rectangular wall is 24 feet long, and the rectangular framed picture is 4.5 feet high and 7.5
fost long. The left edge of the frame will be x feet from the left edge of the wall, and the right
edge of the frame will be x feet from the right edge of the wall. What is the value of x.

Respuesta :

Answer:

8.25 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 7.5 from 24 to get the remaining amount of wall that has no picture frame covering it. 24 - 7.5 = 16.5. You then would divide 16.5 by 2 as there are two sides on either side of the painting that need to be covered. 16.5 / 2 = 8.25. To check yourself: 8.25 + 8.25 + 7.5 = 24.
