Question 264866: A rectangle has length x units and width y units. The rectangle has the
same perimeter as an equilateral triangle with a side of m units.Find x in terms of m and y.
(A) m + y (B) m - y (C) 3m - 2y (D) 1/2(m+y) (E) 1/2(3m-2y) Answer by JBarnum(2146) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2x+2y=p for the rectangle
m+m+m=p for equilateral triangle
the rectangle "p" = the triangle "p" solve for x or
