The perimeter of a rectangle is 15x + 17 y if the length is 7/2x + 7y then find the width of the rectangle A) 4x + 3/2y B) 8x + 3y C) 8x + 10y D) 4x + 3y

Answer :

The equation for the perimeter of a rectangle:

P = 2L + 2W

We’re given P and L and asked to find W:

15x + 17y = 2(7/2x + 7y) + 2W
15x + 17y = 7x + 14y + 2W
2W = 8x + 3y
W = 4x + 3/2y

Answer is A.
