Answer:
The answer to your question is Equation 64 = 44 + 2w ; width = 10 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Perimeter = 64 in
length = 22 in
width = ?
Process
To solve this problem look for the formula of the perimeter of a rectangle, substitute values and solve for width.
- Formula
Perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width)
-Substitution
64 = 2(22) + 2(width) Equation
-Simplification
64 = 44 + 2(width)
64 - 44 = 2(width)
20 = 2(width)
-Solve for width
width = 20/2
Result
width = 10 in
