We have two sides of length 'w'. They are the vertical sides.
We also have two sides of length '2w+6' which are the horizontal sides.
So we have these four sides
side1 = w
side2 = 2w+6
side3 = w
side4 = 2w+6
Let's add up those four sides to get
Perimeter = (side1)+(side2)+(side3)+(side4)
Perimeter = (w)+(2w+6)+(w)+(2w+6)
Perimeter = w+2w+6+w+2w+6
Perimeter = 6w+12
------------------------
Since the perimeter is given to be 228, and we found the perimeter expression to be 6w+12, this must mean that the two are equal
So, 6w+12 = 228
Let's solve for w
6w+12 = 228
6w+12-12 = 228-12
6w = 216
6w/6 = 216/6
w = 36
------------------------
Now that we know that w = 36, we can find the dimensions of this rectangle
The vertical sides are simply w, so the vertical sides are 36 feet each. I simply replaced w with 36.
The horizontal sides are a bit more complicated. The expression we have is 2w+6 or 2*w+6. Let's replace w with 36 and use PEMDAS to evaluate
2*w+6 = 2*36+6 = 78

Answers are...
Length = 78 feet
Width = 36 feet
(the length is the horizontal component, the width is the vertical)
Answer:
300 divided by 10 is equal too 30
and 30 times 4 is equal too 120
The Answer is 120
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope of line through (5,4) and (3,7) = (7-4)/(3-5) = -1.5
Point-slope equation of line:
y-4 = -1.5(x-5)
Convert equation to standard form:
y-4 = -1.5x + 7.5
1.5x + y = 11.5
3x +2y = 23
Ok so for area you multiply the length by the width and for perimeter you just add them.. hope this helps!!
