The Solution to the problem of the rectangle is given below

For Part A:

  • equation model: (14 + w) * (w +8) = 132
  • Length = 15

For Part B

  • Perimeter = 46

Meaning of Perimeter

The perimeter of any shape can be defined as the total sum of the sides of the shape.

<h3>Analysis</h3>

For Part A

equation model= (14 + w) * (w +8) = 135

14w + 112 + 8w + w^{2} = 135

w^{2} + 22w - 23 = 0

solving the quadratic equation

w = -23 or 1

Because we are dealing with a physical quantity we will make use of the value 1

lenght of original rectangle = 10 + 1 = 11

Part B

Perimeter= 2(length) * 2 (breadth) = 2(11 + 4) * 2 (1 + 8)

Perimeter = 48

In conclusion, The Solution to the problem of the rectangle is given above.

Answer:

The perimeter is 48

Step-by-step explanation:

If the width is W

AT first , Length is 10 +w

According to the question,

(w+8) (10+w+4) = 135\\(w+8) (w+14) = 135\\\\w^{2} + 14w + 8w + 112- 135 = 0\\\\ w^{2} + 22w - 23 = 0\\(w+23) (w-1) = 0\\\\w+ 23 = 0     w-1=0\\\\w= -13 or w = 1

Expended width will be  w +8 = 1+8 = 9

Length is 10+w+4 = 15

So the perimeter is

= i2 x (9+15)

= 2x 24

= 48

Can someone please help me? I don't understand this problem. How would they be the same???
musickatia [10]
Area of rectangle = 15 x 8
                           =120

area of parallelogram = 8 x 15 
                               =120
so, they have the same area, because the length of a rectangle is the same as the height of a parallelogram and also for the base.
