Question

The perimeter of a rectangular parking lot is 292 m.

If the length of the parking lot is 81 m, what is its width?

Answer 1

68m

Explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle with length and width is given by the following.

P=21+2w

We need to find w when P=292 m and l+78m .

Using these values in the equation above, we'll solve for w.

P=21+2w

292=2(78)+2w

292=156+2w

136=2w

68=w

Subtracting 156 from both sides

Dividing both sides by 2

So the width of the parking lot is 68m

Answer 2

the answer would be 211

Explanation:

you simply add the length and width together to find perimeter. since you have the total perimeter and the length you would instead subtract the two.

292-81= 211
