I attached a photo where I graphed these vertices in order to count the length and width. After counting the number of units between R & U I got a width of 4. And then I counted the units between S & T to get a width of 6. Using the formula to calculate the perimeter of a rectangle, P = 2(l+w). The perimeter is 20.

First I added the length plus the width, 4 + 6 and got 10. Then I did 10 x 2 which is how I got a perimeter of 20.

What is a prime or composite number?

melomori [17]

-A prime number is a whole numbergreater than 1, whose only two whole-number factors are 1 and itself. The first few prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, and 29.

- A whole number that can be divided evenly by numbers other than 1 or itself. Example: 9 can be divided evenly by 3 (as well as 1 and 9), so 9 is acomposite number. But 7 cannot be divided evenly (except by 1 and 7), so is NOT a composite number (it is a prime number).
