You have a poster that is 5 feet by 3 feet. You want to put a frame, with a uniform width, around the picture as shown. The poster and the frame must have an area of 24 square feet. What is the width of the frame?

(uniform width: you want the width all the way around the picture to be the same, in this case x)

Group of answer choices

1/2

-9/2, 2

-9/2

2

Please don't give me credit, but I want to say that;

1. You need a picture attached to this

2. Make sure you add if 5 feet is the length or width, in addition to the 3 feet

3. The width can't be a negative value, so eliminate the negative answers

4. For the second answer, why is there a coma preceding another value? The width can can only be one value

You can add all these elements

Hoped this helped!
