Radda [10]3 years ago

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the following formula: P = 2W + 2L
To solve this formula for W, the goal is to isolate this variable to one side of the equation such that the width of the rectangle (W) can be solved when given its perimeter (P) and length (L).
P = 2W + 2L
subtract 2L from both sides of the equation
P - 2L = 2W + 2L - 2L
P - 2L = 2W
divide both sides of the equation by 2
(P - 2L)/2 = (2W)/2
(P - 2L)/2 = (2/2)W
(P - 2L)/2 = (1)W
(P - 2L)/2 = W
Thus, given that the perimeter (P) of a rectangle is defined by P = 2W + 2L ,
then its width (W) is given by W = (P - 2L)/2

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Given that Haruka hiked only 25% less in the afternoon, this means that in the afternoon she hikes 75% of the distance she hiked in the morning. This 75% of a certain number is equal to 6. To determine the distance she hiked in the morning, we represent it as x and use the equation,

 

            0.75x = 6

The value of x from the equation is 8. Adding together the 6 and 8 will give us an answer of 14.

Answer: 14 kilometers

hopefully that helped
