Answer:

Width: 12 inches

Length: 4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the width and length, we can solve this algebraically while using the equation [tex]2(x+x+8)=32[/tex]

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

  • [tex]2(2x+8)=32[/tex]
  • [tex]4x + 16 = 32[/tex]

Step 2: Subtract 16 from both sides.

  • [tex]4x+16-16=32-16[/tex]
  • [tex]4x = 16[/tex]

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4.

  • [tex]4x/4 = 16/4[/tex]
  • [tex]x = 4[/tex]

Since x (4) is the length, the width is 12 inches.

  • [tex]2(4+12)[/tex]
  • [tex]2(16)[/tex]
  • [tex]32[/tex]

Therefore, the width is 12 inches and the length is 4 inches.

Have a lovely rest of your day/night, and good luck with your assignments! ♡
