If Perimeter of a rectangle that has a width of x inches and a length of x plus 16 inches is 2x plus 2x plus 16 inches simplify the expression for the perimeter Find the perimeter if x equals 14?
If the rectangle has a width of x inches, and a length of x + 16 inches, then its perimeter equals to 2x + 2x + 32 or 4x + 32. If x = 14, then x + 16 = 30. So the perimeter of rectangle becomes 2(14) + 2(30) = 28 + 60 = 88 inches.
What is the perimeter of a rectangle 12 inches by 14 inches?
Well, darling, to find the perimeter of a rectangle, you add up all the sides. So for your 12x14 inch rectangle, you would do 12+12+14+14, which gives you a grand total of 52 inches. Voilà, there's your perimeter!
What is the length and width of a traffic sign whose perimeter is 74 inches and length is 9 inches longer?
Length + width = half of perimeter = 37 in. 37 - 9 = 28, half of 28 = 14 which is the width, and the length is 23
Why can shapes with the same area have different perimeters?
Shapes with the same area can be different sizes. If you restrict yourself to integers, a rectangle with an area of 12 square inches can have the following dimensions: 1 x 12 (perimeter 26) 2 x 6 (perimeter 16) 3 x 4 (perimeter 14) The long skinny piece has most of its area near the edges. The one that's most like a square has most of its area in the center.
