Question

You may need the formulasArea=L-W and/or Perimeter=2L+2W,where L-length and W=width.The length of a room is 2/3 feet and the width is21/2 feet. What is the perimeter of the room?Write answer in simplest form.29

Answer 1

As you say well, the perimeter (P) of the room (actually a rectangle), is

`P=2L+2W=2((2)/(3)ft)+2((21)/(2)ft)=(4)/(3)ft+21ft=(67)/(3)ft`
