For, "x" greater than 34, the perimeter of the picture frame greater than 152 inches
Solution:
Let "x" be the width of the frame
Given that, The length of a picture frame is 8 inches more than the width
Therefore,
Length = width + 8
Length = x + 8
The perimeter of rectangle is given by formula:
Perimeter = 2(length + width)
Substituting the values we get,
Perimeter = 2(x + 8 + x)
Perimeter = 2(2x + 8)
Perimeter = 4x + 16
The perimeter of the picture frame greater than 152 inches
Perimeter > 152
[tex]4x + 16>152\\\\\text{Subtract 16 from both sides of inequality}\\\\4x + 16 - 16 > 152 - 16\\\\4x>136\\\\\text{Divide both sides by 4}\\\\x>34[/tex]
Therefore, for, "x" greater than 34, the perimeter of the picture frame greater than 152 inches
