Answer:
8 by 12 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w represent the width of the rectangle. Then the length is 1.5w. The perimeter is 4 more than 3 times this, so is (3(1.5w) +4) = 4.5w+4
The perimeter is given by the formula ...
P = 2(length + width)
Filling in the given values for the variables, we have ...
4.5w +4 = 2(w +1.5w)
4 = 0.5w . . . . . . subtract 4.5w and collect terms
8 = w . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2
length = 1.5×8 = 12
The rectangle is 8 units wide and 12 units long. The perimeter is 40 units.
Well 3/8 is .375 but times 100 is 37.5%
Then 37.5% of 800 is 300
4y + 228= 352
-228 -228
4y= 124
