daniel wants to build a sandbox that has a perimeter or 20.5 ft. the length is 5.36 ft. what is the width of the sandbox?

Sagot :

Answer:

20.5 - 5.36
= 15.14/2 (because we are using perimeter, so there are 2 equal lengths and 2 equal widths)
=7.57, therefore the width of the sandbox is 7.57 ft.

Answer:

4.89 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula :

P = 2L + 2W

So now we solve for W :

P = 2(L+W)

P/2 = L+W

P/2 - L =  W

Now we substitute our P and L into the rearranged formula :

20.5 / 2 - 5.36 = W

10.25 - 5.36 = W

W = 4.89 ft
