Hi, I need help on my summer assignment, i did all of them except two...which i don't know how to do. I'm so sorry, they have parts to them. The first one is : "A Glass mirror is selling mirrors with frames. The store charges 10 cents for each square inch of mirror and 25 cents for each linear inch of frame. A. Show that a 20 inch by 30 inch mirror should cost 85 dollars (I tried solving this by multiplying the money by the inches, and by finding the area and stuff but either it equals more or less.) B. If there was a mirror that measures 40 inches on one side, what would the other measurement be if the price were still 85 dollars C. Write an equation that determines the price (p) given length (l) and width (W) D. Solve this equation for L" If you could just do A and B that would be great because then i could figure out c and D since u will show me the work and how u did it so I know....Thank You soooo much~!
