This is for my homework which is due TOMORROW!!! i f you could answer there for me it would be GREAT!! thankyou soo much and i have tried to work theese out by going ( l= length) (w= width) l+l+w+w=82cm i dont know if this is right or not! THANKS from izzi Answer by edjones(8007) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! L=2w+5, p=82
.
1) P= 2L+2w = 82
2(2w+5)+2w=82 Substitute 2w+5 for L
4w+10+2w=82
6w+10=82
6w+10-10=82-10
6w=72
6w/6=72/6
w=12 cm Answer 2)
.
3) L=2w+5
L=2*12+5
L=29 cm
