The perimeter of a rectangle is given by 2(W+L) where L is the base and W is the altitude. If the ratio of W:L is
6: 13 then multiplying by a constant k
we get L= 13k and W=6k
therefore 2(13k +6k) =152 inches
                     2 (19k) = 152
                           38k =152
                               k = 4
Thus since the altitude is equal to 13k then it is equivalent to 52.
Therefore the length of the altitude is 52 inches

First, let x be the common factor between the lengths of the base and the altitude of the given rectangle such that these can be expressed as 6x and 13x, respectively. The perimeter of the rectangle is calculated through the equation,

     P = 2B + 2A

where P is perimeter, B is base, and A is altitude. Substituting the given expressions,

    152 = (2)6x + (2)13x

The value of x from the equation is 4. The lengths of the bases and the altitude are shown below.

    base = 6(4) = 24 inches
    altitude = 13(4) = 52 inches

Can somebody help me on this thanks

Answer:

Add 3/4 to both sides (the last option)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you want to isolate f and the expression on one side is f - 3/4, you have to add 3/4 so that the -3/4 cancels out. When you do that, you also have to add 3/4 to the other side so that the equation stays balanced.
