Answer:

The width of rectangle is W=\frac{108}{13}\ cm  or  8\frac{4}{13}\ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The perimeter of rectangle is equal to

P=2(L+W)

where

L is the length of rectangle

W is the width of rectangle

we have

P=26\ cm\\L=(x+4)\ cm\\W=12x\ cm

substitute

26=2(x+4+12x)

solve for x

26=2(13x+4)

26=26x+8

26x=26-8

26x=18

x=\frac{18}{26}

simplify

x=\frac{9}{13}

<em>Find the width of rectangle</em>

W=12x\ cm

substitute the value of x

W=12(\frac{9}{13})=\frac{108}{13}\ cm

Convert to mixed number

\frac{108}{13}\ cm=\frac{104}{13}+\frac{4}{13}=8\frac{4}{13}\ cm

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Sarah is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

By plugging 10 in as 'x' to the equation, we get y=21+(2*10). 2 x 10 is 20, and 20 + 21 is <em>not</em> 42 - it's 41. So, Sarah is incorrect.
