The perimeter of a rectangle is 64 feet. If one side of the rectangle has a length of 20 feet, how long is the other side?

Respuesta :

Answer:

other side is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Perimeter = 64 feet

L = 20

Formula

P = 2L + 2w               Substitute Givens

64 = 2*20 + 2w         Combine

64 = 40 + 2w             Subtract 40 from both sides

64-40 = 40-40+2w    Combine

24 = 2w                      Divide both sides by 2

24/2=2w/2              

12 = w
