\"The width of a rectangle is fixed at 27cm. What lengths will make the perimeter greater than 78cm?\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(width) + 2(length)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "width = 27 {given}
\n" ); document.write( "length = x\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2(27) + 2(x) > 78 {finding what value of x will make the perimeter greater than 78}
\n" ); document.write( "54 + 2x > 78 {multiplied 2 by 27}
\n" ); document.write( "2x > 22 {subtracted 54 from both sides}
\n" ); document.write( "x > 11\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "a length greater than 11 cm will make the perimeter greater than 78 cm
