4. (LT 1.1) The perimeter of the rectangle below is 40 feet. Its length and width are given in terms of x. Find the length and width of the rectangle.
3x
2x + 5

Length, L = 9 feet.

Width, W = 11 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Perimeter = 40 feet

Length = 3x

Width = 2x + 5

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula;

P = 2(L + W)

40 = 2(3x + 2x +5)

40 = 2(5x + 5)

40 = 10x + 10

10x = 40 - 10

10x = 30

x = 30/10

x = 3

Now, to find the length;

Length, L = 3x

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Length, L = 3*3

Length, L = 9 feet

To find the width;

Width, W = 2x + 5

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Width, W = 2(3) + 5

Width = 6 + 5

Width, W = 11 feet.
