Question

Please answer ASAP!!! Will give branliest!!!

A rectangle has a perimeter equal to 24. If we consider its width x, how could we talk about its length y in terms of x? What are possible values of x? What are possible values of y?

y=

width is=

length is=

Answer 1

We know that the perimeter of a rectangle is 2l+2w

24=2y+2x

Subtract 2x on both sides (we are isolating y)

24-2x=2y

Divide 2 on both sides

Therefore, y=12-x

Some possible values using this equation..

y=8

x=4

Hope this helped :)
