Answer 1

Answer:

Option H

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of rectangle= 2(length) +2(width)

100= 2(5a -22) +2[½(a +1)]

Expand:

100= 2(5a) +2(-22) +a +1

100= 10a -44 +a +1

Simplify:

100= 11a -43

+43 on both sides:

11a= 100 +43

11a= 143

Divide both sides by 11:

a= 143 ÷11

a= 13

Thus, option H is correct.
