The answer is C because multiplication comes first
Answer:
length = 78 feet
width = 36 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Using one variable and an expression, you can set up an equation equal to the perimeter to find the measure of each side:
width = 'w'
length = '42ft longer than it was wide' = w + 42
The general formula for the perimeter of a rectangle:
P = 2w + 2l
Plugging in the given values and variables:
228 = 2w + 2(w + 42)
Distribute: 228 = 2w + 2w + 84
Combine like terms: 144 = 4w
Divide and solve: 36 = w
w = 36 ft
l = 36 + 42 = 78 ft
Answer: A. 3 x 3 x 3 x 4
Step-by-step explanation: 3 x 3 = 9 x 3 = 27 x 4 = 108
Multiply by z to get
wz = xy
divide by x
y = wz/x
