A rectangular bathroom mirror has a perimeter of 22 feet. Its area is 18 square feet. What are the dimensions of the mirror?
1 answer:
Answer:
The dimensions of the mirror is 9 feet and 2 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Keep in mind that the area and perimeter of a rectangle is:
Area - length x width
Perimeter - 2 (l + w)
List the factors of 18 (the area of the mirror):
1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18
POSSIBLE DIMENSIONS OF MIRROR:
1 ft and 18 ft
Area = 18 ft^2
Perimeter = 38 feet
2 ft and 9 ft
Area = 18 ft^2
Perimeter = 22 feet
3 ft and 6 ft
Perimeter = 18 feet
The rectangle with dimensions 2 feet and 9 feet corresponds with the area and perimeter of the mirror mentioned. So those are the correct dimensions.
Hope these helps!
