Find the dimensions of a rectangle with a perimeter of 52cm if it’s length is 4cm more than its width

So the perimeter(P) of a rectangle would be:
P= 2L+2W
L being the length and W being the width.
The problem says the length is 4cm more than the width, so L= 4+W.
So if we substitute L with 4+W, we get:
P= 2(4+W) + 2W
Use the Distributive Property
P= 8+2W+2W
Combine like terms
P=8+4W
Since we're given the perimeter, we could replace P with 52. So:
52=8+4W
Subtract 8 to both sides
44=4W
Divide 4 to both sides
11=W
Therefore, the width is 11cm
And since the length is 4cm more than the width, we could add 4cm to 11cm to find that the length is 15cm
Thus, the dimensions of the rectangle are 15cm by 11cm

The area of the rectangle is 6 square feet. If its width is 2 1/7<br> ​feet, find its length.

Answer:

L = 2 4/5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A = L x W

6 = L x 2 1/7

divide both sides by 2 1/7

6 divided by 2 1/7 = L (is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal)

6 x 7/15 = L

L = 14/5 or 2 4/5

A speed limit is 35 mph. A car is travelling 10 mph over the speed limit. I’d that a sum of 0
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

The car is going 45 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the speed limit is 35 mph and the car is 10 mph over the speed, we can add them to find out how fast the car is going. We can solve 35+10 which will give us 45. So it is not a sum of 0 but instead a sum of 45.

(hope this helped)
