5. 2. A rectangular print is 36 inches long and 24 inches wide. It will be placed inside a rectangular frame that is 2 inches wide on all sides. What is the area when the print is inside the frame A. 864 in. B. 960 in? C. 980 in. D. 1,120 in.

Respuesta :

Since the frame has 2 inches wide on all sides, the frame measures:

Then, the area of the frame is

[tex]\begin{gathered} A=\text{basexheight} \\ A=40\times28 \end{gathered}[/tex]

which gives

[tex]A=1120in^2[/tex]

then, the answer is 1120 inches squared, which corresponds to option D.
