Question

Chloe is installing new windows in her house and needs to determine the amount of sealant she will need around the outside edge of each rectangular window. Each of the windows has an area of 2,160 inches squared with a length of 60 inches. What is the perimeter of each window?

Answer 1

The perimeter of each window is 192 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of window = 2160 in²

Length of window = 60 inches

Let,

w be the width.

Area of window = (width)(length)

$2160=w(60)\\60w=2160$

Dividing both sides by 60

$\frac{60w}{60}=\frac{2160}{60}\\w=36\ inches$

Perimeter = 2(l+w)

$Perimeter=2(60+36)\\Perimeter=2(96)\\Perimeter=192\ inches$

The perimeter of each window is 192 inches.
