Answer:

Length would be 9 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle has a width of 4 centimeters and a perimeter of 26 centimeters.

Perimeter = 2(Length + Width)

Let the length of the rectangle be 'L'

2(L + 4) = 26

2L + 8 = 26

2L = 26 - 8

2L = 18

L = 18/2

L = 9

Length would be 9 centimeters.

Answer:

length = 9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = p =26 cm

width = w= 4 cm

perimeter of a rectangle= 2*w+2*L

L= length

so we have:

26 = 2*(4) +2*L

26= 8 +2L

26-8 = 2L

18 = 2L

L= 18/2

L =9 cm = length

The length of a rectangle is 4 inches more than its width, and its perimeter is 34 inches. Find the length and width of the

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Width = 6.5 inches

Length = 10.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

"l" be length of rectangle

and

"w" be width of rectangle

Since length of rectangle is 4 inches MORE THAN WIDTH, we can write:

l = 4 + w

The perimeter is sum of all sides, so

Perimeter = l + l + w + w = 2l + 2w

The perimeter is 34, so we can write:

2l + 2w = 34

Putting 1st equation in 2nd, we get equation in "w" and solve for this first:

$2l + 2w = 34\\2(4+w) + 2w = 34\\8+2w+2w=34\\4w=26\\w=\frac{26}{4}=6.5$

Width is 6.5 in

Now, l = 4 + w, so

l = 4 + 6.5 = 10.5

Length is 10.5 in

Gracie has 1/2 of a cantaloupe that she wants to divide. How many 's 1/8 of a cantaloupe are there in 1/2 of a cantaloupe?

Julli [10]

Answer:

4/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing a whole cantaloupe into eighths will give you 8/8 or 1. When it is cut in half then divided there is one half of 8/8 or there are 4/8 in one half. This is true because 1/2 and 4/8 are equal terms.

Hope this helps!
