Answer:

a.ℓ=(P/2)-w, b.ℓ=18 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello

I can help you with this one

Let

perimeter=2ℓ+2w

perimeter=48 cm

width=6 cm

Step one

a. Write the formula in terms of ℓ, it means that ℓ must be isolated

P=2ℓ+2w

subtract 2w in both sides

P-2w=2ℓ+2w-2w

P-2w=2ℓ

divide both sides by 2

(P-2w)/2=2ℓ/2

(P/2)-w=ℓ

ℓ=(P/2)-w

Step two

b.Substitute the clues you are given into the rearranged formula.

replace the values

ℓ=(P/2)-w

ℓ=(48 cm /2)-6 cm

ℓ=24 cm - 6 cm

ℓ=18 cm

Have a good day

belka [17]

In a right triangle, this formula can be used:


a^2 + b^2 = c^2


when a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.


Substitute the numbers from the problem into the formula.


14^2 + b^2 = 18^2


Simplify.


196 + b^2 = 324

b^2 = 128

b = square root of 128 = 11.3137...


When 11.313 is rounded to the nearest tenth, it is 11.3


The length of the other leg is 11.3 centimeters.


Hope this helps!
