The perimeter (adding up all the sides) of a rectangular

Answer:

x = 8

length is 12 meters

width is 9 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2l + 2w

where l is the length and w is the width.

(There are two sides with the same length, and two sides with the same width.)

Let l = x + 4 and w = 2x - 7

so 2(x+4) + 2(2x-7) = 42

Distribute the 2s

2x + 8 + 4x - 14 = 42

Combine like terms

2x + 4x + 8 - 14 = 42

Group

6x - 6 = 42

Add 6 to both sides

6x = 48

Divide 6 on both sides

x = 8

Plug back in

l = 8 + 4 = 12 meters

and w = 2(8) - 7 = 16 - 7 = 9 meters

Double-check: 2 * 12 + 2 * 9 = 24 + 18 = 42

The greatest common factor of all the coefficients is of 8.

<h3>What is the greatest common factor?</h3>

The greatest common factor between multiple terms is the largest value for which all terms are divisible.

In this problem, the equation is:

h(x) = -16x^2 + 56x + 96

The terms are 16, 56 and 96. Hence, to find the gcf, we have to keep factoring them by prime factors while all can be factored by the same value, hence:

16 - 56 - 96|2

8 - 28 - 48|2

4 - 14 - 24|2

1 - 7 - 12

There are no terms by which both 7 and 12 are divisible, hence the procedure is stopped and:

gcf(16, 56, 96) = 2³ = 8.
