Answer:
= 440 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a rectangle is found by adding up all the sides. We use the formula
P =2(l+w)
where l is the length and w is the width
The length is 140 and the width is 80
P = 2(140+80)
= 2(220)
= 440 ft
Answer:
2a +2b +4
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the three sides. If x represents the length of the third side, then ...
(3a +8) +(5a +b) +x = (10a +3b +12)
Subtracting from the equation everything on the left side that is not x, we get ...
x = (10a +3b +12) -(3a +8) -(5a +b)
= a(10 -3 -5) +b(3 -1) +(12 -8)
= 2a +2b +4
The length of the third side is 2a +2b +4.

Answer: b = 17
Step-by-step explanation: The figure shows a triangle which upon closer observation is actually two triangles placed one inside the other. We have triangle QTR (the larger one) and triangle PTS (the smaller one).
The line PS is parallel to line QR, so in effect what we have here are two similar triangles. The ratios of similarity can be derived as
Line QT/line TR = line PT/line TS OR
Line QT/line QR = line PT/line PS.
With these ratios in mind we can now write the following expressions from the similar triangles;
QT = 2b + (2b - 17) and
TR = 16 + 8
TR = 24
Hence,
2b/16 = 2b + (2b - 17)/24
(That is, PT/TS = QT/TR)
2b/16 = (4b - 17)/24
By cross multiplication we now have,
2b(24) = 16(4b - 17)
By expanding the brackets we now have
48b = 64b - 272
By collecting like terms, 64b now moves to the left side of the equation and becomes negative
48b - 64b = -272
-16b = -272
Divide both sides of the equation by -16
b = 17
**Note** A negative number divided by another negative number yields a positive answer.
