Question 896938: The perimeter of a square must be greater than 128 inches but less than 186 inches. Find the range of possible side lengths that satisfy these conditions. Found 2 solutions by JulietG, MathTherapy:Answer by JulietG(1812) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! P = 2L + 2W
In the case of a square, P = 4L (length and width are the same size)
128 < P < 186
128/4 sides = 32
186/4 sides = 46.5
32 < L < 46.5 (side length must be greater than 32 and less than 46.5)

The perimeter of a square must be greater than 128 inches but less than 186 inches. Find the range of possible side lengths that satisfy these conditions.
Perimeter of square, with each side being, S:
Thus, we have: ------ Dividing by 4
Range of side lengths:
