P = L + L + w + w
72 = 2(L) + 2(L-4)
Distribute
72 = 2(L) + 2(L) - 8
Add like terms
72 = 4(L) - 8
Subtract 8 from both sides
64 = 4(L)
Divide both sides by 4
16 = L
The length is 16. Now substitute that in the equation for finding w.
w = L - 4
w =
This answer is a. Just do distributive property
Since 4 is between 2 & 5 you input it into the middle equation.
x=4
so the answer is 4!
