the width of a rectangle is half its length. the perimeter is 36 inches. whar are the dimensions of the rectangle

1 answer:

4 0

Width of a rectangle is half its length:
2w = l
Perimeter is 36
2w + 2l = 36

Plug first equation into second (substitution)

2w + 2(2w) = 36
2w + 4w = 36
6w = 36
w = 6

Plug back into first equation to solve for l

2(6) = 12 = l

Dovator [93]

Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{8 + 8i}}}}}$

Option D is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf{(3 + i) + (5 + 7i)}$

When there is a ( + ) in front of an expression in parentheses , there is no need to change the sign.

That means, the expression remains the same.

Just remove the unnecessary parentheses

⇒ $\sf{3 + i + 5 + 7i}$

Collect like terms and simplify

⇒ $\sf{3 + 5 + i + 7i}$

⇒ $\sf{8 + 8i}$

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!
