Perimeter of rectangle:
P = 2(L + W)
P = 250 (given)
L = 3W - 35 (given)
250 = 2(3W -35 + W) ↔ 125 = 4W - 35
4W = 125 +35 =160 And W = 40 ft
And L = 3x40 - 35 = 85 ft
Complete Question:
Dustin is buying carpet for the living room. If the length of the room is 21 ft and the width
is 11 ft, how many square feet of carpet does he need to buy?
Answer:
231 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
==>GIVEN:
Length of room (L) = 21 ft
Width of room (W) = 11 ft
==>REQUIRED:
Square feet of carpet to be bought = area of the rectangular room
==>SOLUTION:
The room to be covered with carpet is rectangular in shape. In order to ascertain the square feet of carpet to be bought, we need to calculate the area of the room by using the formula for area of rectangle.
Thus, area of rectangle (A) = Length (L) × Width (W)
A = 21 × 11
A = 231 ft²
Square feet of carpet to be bought = 231 ft²
So, you should add the heighth twice and add the width twice too, then add those two together to get your answer.
