The formula for perimeter is length + length + width + width
You know that all the sides of a square are equal to each other. That means that all the values in the perimeter formula should be the same. Therefore you can divide 72 by 4 (perimeter divided by the number of sides)
72 / 4 = 18
^^^Each side is 18 in
The formula for are is...
A = length x width
so...
18 * 18 = 324
324 in^2

Hi! I'm happy to help!
To solve this, we first need to look at the perimeter equation:
P=2L+2W
We don't know our length, so we can represent it with x. Since our width is 2 feet shorter than x, we can represent it with x-2. Now, we plug these values into our equation:
56=2x+(2(x-2))
Let's simplify what the width is by multiplying:
56=2x+2x-4
Now, let's combine our 2xs
56=4x-4
Now, we just need to solve for x in order to find our length and width.
First, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation. We can do this by adding 4 to both sides:
56=4x-4
+4 +4
60=4x
Now, all we have to do is divide both sides by 4 and x will be fully isolated:
60=4x
÷4 ÷4
15=x
Now that we know x, let's plug this into our previous equations:
L=x=15
<u>L=15</u>
W=x-2=15-2=13
<u>W=13</u>
To verify our answers, we can plug this into our perimeter equation:
56=2(15)+2(13)
56=30+36
56=56
After double checking our answers, we know that our length is 15 and our width is 13.
I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D
Answer:
5, -25, 125, -625
Step-by-step explanation:
A geometric sequence is where a number is divided or multiplied by same number continuously
in the third option the number are multiplied by (-5) continuously
The answer is 230. Good luck
