The perimeter of a rectangle is 32 inches. The length is 1 foot. What is the width of the rectangle in inches? A. 4 inches B. 10
alekssr [168]

Answer:

A. 4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying,

P = 2(L+W)............. Equation 1

Where P = Perimter of the rectangle, L = Length of the rectangle, W = width of the rectangle.

make W the subject of the equation

W = (P/2)-L............ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: P = 32 inches, L = 1 foot (Convert from Foot to inches), L = 12 inches

Substitute these values into equation 2

W = (32/2)-12

W = 16-12

W = 4 inches.

Hence the right option is A.
