Algebra.Com's Answer #3203 by CharStar(110)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The formula for Perimeter = P 2(l+w) \n" ); document.write( "Let Width = x-4 \n" ); document.write( "Let Length = x\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "420=2(x-4+x) \n" ); document.write( "420=2x-8+2x \n" ); document.write( "420=4x-8 \n" ); document.write( "Subract 8 from both sides\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "428=4x \n" ); document.write( "107=x\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Check your answer\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "P=2(l+w) \n" ); document.write( "420=2(107-4+107) \n" ); document.write( "420=2(210) \n" ); document.write( "420=420\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps you \n" ); document.write( " |
