A rectangle has length 127.3 cm and width 86.5 cm, both correct to 1 decimal place. Calculate the upperbound and the lowerbound
1 answer:
Answer:
Correct to 1dp
127.3 cm = 127.0 cm
86.5 cm = 87.0 cm
Upper limits:
127.0 cm = 127.05 cm
87.0 cm = 87.05 cm
Lower Limits:
127.0 cm = 126.95 cm
87.0 cm = 86.95 cm
upper limit of perimeter of rectangle:
P = 2(l+w)
= 2(127.05 + 87.05)
= 2(214.1)
= 428.2 cm
lower limit of perimeter of rectangle:
P = 2(l+w)
= 2(126.95 + 86.95)
= 2(213.9)
= 427.8 cm
therefore;
