Answer: 7 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Since all 4 sides of a square are equal, you do 28 / 4 = 7 feet, which is the answer.
w + 4
------------------------
l l
l l w
l l
------------------------
Perimeter would be the sum of all the sides so: (w+4) + w + (w+4) + w
Perimeter is 60 yards according to your problem so: (w+4) + w + (w+4) + w = 60 yds
1.Simplify/combine like terms:
w + 4 + w + w + 4 + w =
4w + 8 =
Now it's a 2-step algebra equation
4w + 8 = 60
2.Subtract 8 on both sides
4w = 56
3.Divide both sides by 4
w = 14
You start counting from 0 onwards:
C = 6
D = 8
Then C x D = 48
So the product CxD is situated at 48 units from 0
