Answer:
B. W = (P - 2L) / 2
Step-by-step explanation:
(I'm gonna use capitals so it's easier to identify length and width variables)
P = 2L + 2W
Isolate w:
P - 2L = 2W
(P - 2L) / 2 = W
P = perimeter
Perimeter of a rectangle = l + l + w + w
or P = 2l + 2w
You know:
P = 150 m
l = w + 5 [length is 5 m greater than the width]
P = 2l + 2w Plug in what you know
150 = 2(w + 5) + 2w Simplify, distribute/multiply 2 into (w + 5)
150 = 2w + 10 + 2w
150 = 4w + 10 Subtract 10 to both sides of the equation
140 = 4w Divide 4 on both sides
35 = w
PROOF l = w + 5 ---> l = 40
P = 2l + 2w
150 = 2(40) + 2(35)
150 = 80 + 70
150 = 150
Answer:
17 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two same angles shown, so two sides are equal. We can form an equation x+4=4x+1. Solution is x=1, then both unknown sides are 5 in. long. Given all side lengths we add them 7+5+5+15 getting the perimeter.
Length of the actual bathroom = 20 x 2 inches = 40 inches = 10/3 ft
Width of the actual bathroom = 20 x 3.5 inches = 70 inches = 35/6 ft
Area of the actual bathroom = length x width = 10/3 x 35/6 = 19 square ft.
