Hello!
When finding the perimeter of a rectangle, you have to consider the properties of a rectangle. A rectangle has two pairs of equal sides where one is the width, while the other one is the length.
Now looking back at your question, it says "... a rectangle that is x units wide" ⇒ you let the width = x ; this is the same with "y units long" ⇒ length = y. Perimeter can just be : P = 24.
Therefore,
The equation would be:
x + x + y + y = P.
2x + 2y = P.
(Sub in P = 24)
∴ 2x + 2y = 24. (This should be your answer.)
:) Good luck (Message me if you have any problem)
First we have to convert 60 feet to inches. since there are 12 inches in a foot we will multiply by 12
60×12=720
since the real thing is 720 inches and the scale drawing is 15 inches we can make a ratio
720:15
then simpliy
48:1
would be your answer. It means that for every 48 inches it is in real life the scale drawing will be one inch
The division ➗ ÷ sign will make the expression correct if you correct the question!
Answer:
f=(d-c)/g
Step-by-step explanation:
fg+c=d
fg=d-c
