Question

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2(1 + w) and the formula for the area of a rectangle is A = lw, where l is

Answer 1

Answer:

The perimeter is 16 inches and the area is 15 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a Rectangle is : 2(l + w)

Area of a Rectangle is l * w

l = length

w = width

Please always note that, in a given dimension for a rectangle, the bigger value is for the LENGTH while the smaller one is the WIDTH.

From the question:

l = 5

w = 4

Perimeter

= 2(l + w)

= 2 ( 5 + 3)

= 2 ( 8 )

= 16 inch

AREA

= l * w

= 5 * 3

= 15 square inches
