Before it was trimmed, a booklet measured 8 1/4 in high by 6 3/4 in wide. If each edge of the height and one edge of the width were trimmed 1/4 in , what is the finished size?

answer: 16

step-by-step explanation: first you would add 6+6 which equals 12 then add 2+2 which equals 4. then add 12 + 4 which is 16.

hope this ^_^

answer:

given the linear inequality :

add 2y to both sides we get;

simplify:

add 12 to both sides of an equation;

simplify:

divide both sides by 2 we get;

or

the related equation for the inequality equation [1] is;

y-intercepts defined as the graph crosses the y-axis.

substitute x =0 in [2] to solve for y;

y = 6

x-intercepts defined as the graph crosses the x-axis.

substitute value y = 0 to solve for x;

subtract 6 from both sides we get

multiply both sides by 2 we get;

or

x = -12

now, plot these point (0, 6) and (-12, 0) on graph as shown below and shade the graph below the solid line.
