Question

The perimeter of a rectangle is dependent on the length of each of its sides. Suppose the base of a rectangle is two more than its height. Sketch or describe this rectangle, using an algebraic expression to represent each of its side lengths.

Answer 1

Answer:

Knowing that the object is a rectangle, and that the base is 2x the height, you could say that h=height and b=base (and the base is the same as width since the object is a rectangle) then a possible equation you could construct is 2(h+2b)

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, using this equation with numbers may look like the following:

• 2(h+2b)
• 2(21+2*21)
• 2(21+42)
• 2(61)
• =122
