To find the amount of fabric for one side of the purse you will find the area of the trapezoidal space that is created. The latch is on the top, so the 2 in is not necessary information.
A = 1/2 h(b1 + b2)
1/2 x 13 x (10 + 16)
A = 169 square inches of fabric will be needed.
Formula for perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + W)
let the number be x
width = 2x + 8
length = 3(2x + 8)
substitute respectively
96 = 2 (2x + 8 + 3(2x + 8)) open the bracket
96 = 2 ( 2x + 8 + 6x + 24) collect like terms
96 = 2 (8x + 32) open the bracket
96 = 16x + 64
collect like terms
96 - 64 = 16x
32 = 16x
divide both sides by 16
32/16 = 16x/16
2 = x
therefore, the width = 2x + 8 = 2(2) + 8 = 4 + 8 = 12.
and the length = 3(2x + 8) = 6x + 24 = 6(2) + 24 = 12 + 24 = 36.
Answer:
9x + x

Answer:
4m
Step-by-step explanation:
the ratio to find a square’s area is <em>side length</em> times <em>side length</em>, i.e.
sl * sl = a
2m * 2m = 4m
