Let us set up some variables:

  • L: Length
  • W: Width

Now let us set up some equations based on the facts:

  • length of rectangle is 4 times its width --> L = 4W
  • perimeter of rectangle is 80 --> 2L + 2W = 80

Equations:

   L = 4W     -- equation 1

   2L + 2W = 80 -- equation 2

   Plug the value of L from equation 1 into equation 2

    2(4W) + 2W = 80

     8W + 2W = 80

        10W = 80

           W = 8 -- equation 3

   

   Plug the value of W from equation 3 into equation 1:

    L = 4W = 4 * 8 = 32

Therefore the length is 32 and the width is 8.

Hope that helps!

The unit rate of speed is 52.5 miles per hour

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that On a trip to visit relatives you drive 1,115.625 miles over the course of 21  hours and 15 minutes

We know that, 1 hour = 60 minutes

21  hours and 15 minutes = 21 hours + (15/60) hours = 21 + 0.25 = 21.25 hours

So they drive 1115.625 miles in 21.25 hours

To find the unit rate of speed of your vehicle in miles per hour, divide the total miles by time taken

unit rate of speed means miles driven in 1 hour

\rightarrow \frac{1115.625}{21.25} = 52.5

So the unit rate of speed is 52.5 miles per hour
