Question

​A rectangle has length x and width y.
​The perimeter of the rectangle ​is 32.
​
​Part A
Write an equation that represents the relationship between x and y described above.

Answer 1

Answer:

2x + 2y = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

2 sides of each rectangle are always equal to each other, and there's 2 pairs of that, top&bottom and side&side

The perimeter is all the sides added together, so it's x + x +y +y, which can be written as 2x + 2y
