In the 1st question , we are given with a rectangle whose breadth is 4x and length is 2x+5y and we need to find it's perimeter in simplified form . Now , as we knows that for any rectangle with Length 'l' and breadth 'b' it's perimeter is given by 2(l+b) . Now , applying the same concept in our question , we have


{:\implies \quad \sf Perimeter=2(2x+5y+4x)}


{:\implies \quad \sf Perimeter=2(6x+5y)}


{:\implies \quad \sf Perimeter=2* 6x+2* 5y}


{:\implies \quad \bf \therefore \quad \underline{\underline{Perimeter=12x+10y}}}

Now , in 2nd question , we are given That Jeanelle bought 3 chocolate bars more than as of Eashan , and Rameen bought twice as many as Jeanelle . So , now here assume that Eashan bought x chocolate bars . So , Jeanelle have (x+3) bars and Rameen have 2(x+3) bars and all chocolate bars add up to 17 .Now , According to question


{:\implies \quad \sf x+(x+3)+2(x+3)=17}


{:\implies \quad \sf x+x+3+2x+6=17}


{:\implies \quad \sf (2x+x+x)+(3+6)=17}


{:\implies \quad \sf 4x+9=17}

Subtracting 9 from both sides


{:\implies \quad \sf 4x+\cancel{9}-\cancel{9}=17-9}


{:\implies \quad \sf 4x=8}


{:\implies \quad \sf x=(8)/(4)}


{:\implies \quad \bf \therefore \quad \underline{\underline{x=2}}}

Now ,

  • No. of bars Eashan have = x = 2
  • No. of bars Jeanelle have = (x+3) = (2+3) = 5
  • No. of bars Rameen have =2(x+3) = 2(2+3) = 2(5) = 10
