Answer:


a) \quad l = (P-2w)/(2)


b) \quad 26 \ inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2(Length + Width)

In short form:

P = 2l + 2w

Here make "l" the subject:


\rightarrow P = 2l + 2w

relocate term w


\rightarrow P-2w = 2l

dividing both sides by 2


\rightarrow (P-2w)/(2) = l

Now find the length of picture frame:

Given: P = 84 inches, W = 16 inches


\rightarrow l = (84-2(16))/(2)

evaluate


\rightarrow l =26

Hence, the length of the picture frame is 26 inches.
