Question

The perimeter of the rectangle below is 94 units. Find the length of side BC.
Write your answer without variables.
DC= 2x+3 DA= 3x-1

Answer 1

Answer:

Length BC = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimetre = 94

; Perimetre = 2(2x + 3) + 2(3x - 1)

; 94 = 4x + 6 + 6x - 2

; 94 - 4 = 10x

; 90 = 10x

;Therefore the value of x = 9....Hence the length of BC

BC = 3(9) - 1

; BC = 26
