The length of Marshall's rectangular poster is 2 times its width. If the perimeter is 24 inches, what is the area of the poster?

1 answer:

7 0

Length=2x
width=x
Perimeter of a rectangle=2(length) + 2(width)
We can suggest this equation:
24=2(2x)+2x
24=4x+2x
24=6x
x=24/6
x=4

length=2x=2(4)=8
width=x=4

area of a rectangle=length x width
area of this poster (rectangle)=(8 in)( 4 in)=32 in².

The area of this poster will be: 32 in²

I hope the last thing on the third answer is ... less than or equal to 0. If it is greater than 0, then you get into complex numbers and the result is not a graph that you can make yet. Just so you know what the graph looks like, I've included it.

C (or third one down) <<<< answer.
