Answer:
he added the dimensions of the rectangle. He used the wrong formula. the formula he used was length + breadth. He should have multiplied by 2
6x + 8y +8
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 x (L + B)
L = length
b = breadth
2 (3x + 4y + 4. ) = 6x + 8y +8
<em>x = markers</em>
<em>y = colored pencils</em>
12x = y
x= 72
y = 6
Okay, so what I did was divide 78 by 12 (to find the number of colored pencils) which gave me 6.5. You can't have half a colored pencil, so I rounded the number down to get 6. To find the number of markers, I multiplied 12 and 6 <em>(12x = 6) </em>which gave me 72. To check my answer I added the two amounts, 72 + 6, which gave me 78.
The answer Is going to be 24
