Perimeter formula:

perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width)

Plug in values and solve for width:

46 = 2(8) + 2(w)

46 = 16 + 2w

30 = 2w

w = 15

The width of the rectangle is 15 feet.

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve the perimeter you add the sides together. the equation to solve this would be

8+8+x+x=46

16+x+x=46

the x's are the same number so to solve it isolate the x's and 46

x+x=30

divide 30 by 2

the width is 15

Answer:

She uses $\frac{1}{12}$ of the sheet of paper to make the flower.

Step-by-step explanation:

She cuts 1/2 of a piece of paper.

Of what was cut, she used 1/6 to make a piece.

What fraction of the sheet of paper does she use to make the flower?

A sixth of one half. So

$\frac{1}{6}*\frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{12}$

She uses $\frac{1}{12}$ of the sheet of paper to make the flower.
