Q. A photograph is 44 inches by 88 inches. A frame shop charges $4.99\$4.99 per inch for a silver frame. How much would it cost to buy a silver frame for the photograph?\newline$\$_____
  1. Calculate Perimeter: Calculate the perimeter of the photograph to determine the total length of the frame needed.\newlineThe perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula P=2(l+w)P = 2(l + w), where ll is the length and ww is the width.\newlineFor the photograph, l=8l = 8 inches and w=4w = 4 inches.\newlineP=2(8+4)=2(12)=24P = 2(8 + 4) = 2(12) = 24 inches.
  2. Calculate Cost: Calculate the cost of the frame by multiplying the perimeter of the photograph by the cost per inch.\newlineThe cost per inch for the silver frame is $4.99\$4.99.\newlineTotal cost = Perimeter ×\times Cost per inch\newlineTotal cost = 2424 inches ×\times $4.99\$4.99/inch\newlineTotal cost = $119.76\$119.76
