1 answer:

5 0

Let the width of the room be = x

Length of the room = 3x, Since it is three times as wide

Perimeter = 80m

Perimeter = 2*(L + W) = 2*(3x + x) = 80

2*(3x + x) = 80

2*(4x) = 80

8x = 80 Divide both sides by 8

x = 80/8

x = 10, But length = 3x, = 3*10 = 30

Length = 30m

Stella [2.4K]

I am not sure about this one, but I’m pretty sure function 1 as 24 divided by 2 is 2, which makes (2,0) and function 1 has (0,2). The higher the line, the greater it is.
