Question 129461This question is from textbook Fundamentals of Algebric Modeling
: Using the perimeter formula for a rectangle and the fact that the perimeter should be 48 feet, solve for the length to write an equation for the length of the rectangle in terms of the width.
My answer is:
P = 2L + 2W
48 = 2L + 2W
48 = 2(12) + 2(12)
48 = 24 + 24
P = 48

Question 134685: Hi there,


We were browsing through a folder of our maths teachers, for any challenging maths questions. We arrived at one that had been originally in a popular maths exam, but had no idea how to figure it out in a time-efficient manner. Still, we haven't found the answer and would appreciate any help or an explanation of how you arrived at your answer:


"We say that squares can be packed together to form a 'jagged rectangle' if they fill a rectangular box in the way shown in the diagram. The diagram shows a 6 by 4 jagged rectangle and it contains 39 squares of the same size. In a 9 by 7 jagged rectangle, how many such squares would there be?"


It's quite hard to do the diagram here with such limited keyboard buttons, but if you reply in a confidential email to the given email, we would like to send you an image of this so called "jagged rectangle." Please help us.


Thank you!
