The width of rectangle is 7 less than twice the length. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 43.6 inches, what is the area of the rectangle?

29.49 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the rectangle be x inches

Therefore, width = (2x - 7) inches

Perimeter of rectangle =2( length + width)

therefore,

43.6 = 2 ( x + 2x - 7)

43.6/2 = 2 ( 3x - 7)

21.8 = 6x - 14

21.8 + 14 = 6x

6x = 35.8

x = 35.8/6

x = 5.97 inches

Length = 5.97 inches

width = 2*5.97-7 =11.94 - 7 = 4. 94 inches

Area of rectangle

= Length * width

= 5.97*4.94

=29.4918

= 29.49 square inches

by definition, an arc subtended by a central angle of some given measure has the same measure. so .

plants store their excess carbohydrate in the form of starch so that it could be used as energy source later on. the excess carbohydrate is converted into starch in the plastid i.e. chloroplast & this process occurs in the presence of sunlight. it is an insoluble polymer of glucose which gets stored in cell organelles named as amyloplasts. in some plants, starch is also stored in roots and embryos.
