Question

The length of a rectangle is three times the width. The perimeter of the rectangle is at most 112cm. Which inequality models the relationship between the width and the perimeter of the rectangle

Answer 1

Answer:

8x⩽112

Step-by-step explanation:

Width of the rectangle (in centimeters) = x

Therefore, the lenght of the rectable is 3x (in centimeters).  

The perimeter of the rectangle (in centimeters) is : 2x+2*3x=2x+6x=8x.

The perimeter of the rectangle is at most 112cm, therefore, 8x⩽112.
