A picture frame made from a strip of wood is 2 inches wide the frame is rectangular and the outside of its measures is 12 inches by 20 inches what is the total area of the wood part of the frame in square inches

A. 60 square inches
B. 112 square inches
C. 128 square inches
D. 236 square inches

Area of Frame = 60 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The total area ("outside") is 20 in times 12 in, or 240 in^2.

The area of the opening is 10 in by 18 in, or 180 in^2.

Subtracting the latter from the former, we get

Area of Frame = 60 in^2

(x^2-9)/ (x + 3) = x-3
