the length of a rectangle is equal to triple the width . if the perimeter is 8 centimeters .what is the length and the width of
the rectangle
1 answer:
Answer:
Length = 3 cm
Width = 1 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of rectangle be l and width of rectangle be w.
According to problem,
l = 3w {Length of rectangle is equal to triple the width}
And Perimeter,P = 8 cm
Since, P = 2 ( l + w )
or 8 = 2( l + w)
Plug l =3w in the above perimeter equation.
We get:
8 = 2( 3w + w)
8 = 2(4w)
8 = 8w
or w = 1 cm
Then length ,l = 3w =3 * 1 = 3 cm
Hence length of rectangle is 3cm and width of rectangle is 1cm.

Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
2x/2 = 8/2
x =4
The y-in is -6
The x- in is -1 and -6
The vertex is (-3.5,-6.25)
The axis is -3.5
-x+3x=2x
2x=2+6
2x=8
8/2=4
x=4
F(13) means x equals 13.
Replace x in the equation with 13 and solve:
-13 + 3 = -10
F(13) = -10
