Question

El perímetro de un rectángulo es 58 y su base excede en 10 a su ancho, ¿Cuánto mide la base? AYUDAAAA

Answer 1

Answer:

The base is 19.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given question is, "The perimeter of a rectangle is 58 and its base exceeds its width by 10, how long is the base?"

Perimeter = 58

Base, l = 10+b

The perimeter of a rectangle is :

P = 2(l+b)

58 = 2(10+b+b)

29 = (10+2b)

29-10 = 2b

19 = 2b

b = 9.5

Base, l = 10 + 9.5

= 19.5

Hence, the base is 19.5.
