Question

The perimeter of a rectangle is 15x+17y. if the length is 7/2x+7y, then find the width of the rectangle

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Length : $\frac{7x}{2} + 7y$

Perimeter: $15x + 17y$

Perimeter = 2(Length + Width)

15x + 17y = 2( $\frac{7x}{2} + 7y$ + Width)

15x + 17y = 7x + 14y + 2(Width)

15x + 17y -7x -14y = 2(Width)

8x + 3y = 2(Width)

Width = $\frac{8x + 3y}{2}$

Width = 4x + 3y/2
