Area of rectangular board = length (inches) x width (inches) = 12" x 16" = 192 in²
Area of the border is given as 128 in²
Adding the area of the board and the border gives (192 + 128)in² = 320 in²
Set this up as the algebraic equation (x + 12)(x + 16) = 320 and solve for x:
Remember to use the FOIL method, which is multiplying the terms in the order of first, outer, inner, last.
x² + 12x + 16x + 192 = 320
x² + 28x + 192 - 320 = 0
x² + 28x - 128 = 0
solve for the two x values:
(x + 32)(x - 4) = 0, and knowing we only need the positive x value
x = 4 or 4 inches is the width of the border
There are two coefficients in this equatin,why because we have two variables "x and y " . Therefore the coefficients are (+6 for variable x) and (+14 for variable y) and we have only one constant...why? because we can only have one constant in a given equation.
A consumer price index (CPI) measures changes in the price level of market basket of consumer goods and services purchased by households.The annual percentage change in a CPI is used as a measure of inflation
CPI=(1,445÷745)×100=194
