W= width
L= length= 2W-4
Perimeter= 70
FIND WIDTH:
P= 2(L + W)
P= 2L + 2W
substitute 2W-4 for L
70= 2(2W-4) + 2W
multiply 2 by all in parentheses
70= (2*2W) + (2*-4) + 2W
70= 4W - 8 + 2W
combine like terms
70= 6W - 8
add 8 to both sides
78= 6W
divide both sides by 6
13= W
FIND LENGTH:
substitute w=13 to find width
L= 2W-4
L= 2(13)-4
L= 26-4
L= 22
CHECK:
P= 2(L + W)
70= 2(22 + 13)
70= (2*22) + 2(13)
70= 44 + 26
70= 70
ANSWER:
length= 22 inches
width= 13 inches
Hope this helps! :)
X = -23 - 47
x = -70
-70 + 47 = -23
Most of the information's required for solving the question is already given in the question.
Height of the building that casts a shadow of 20 m = 32 m
Then
Height of the man that casts a shadow of 1.2 m = (32/20) * 1.2 meter
= 3.2 * 1.2 meter
= 3.84 meter
So the actual height of the person casting a shadow of 1.2 meter is 3.84 meters. I hope that the procedure used for solving the problem is easy enough for you to understand. You can definitely use this method in future for solving problems of similar type without requiring any additional help from outside.
