Question

MP Reason The school wants to build a new trophy case.
They know that the perimeter of the case will be 36 feet.
They also know that the width can only be 3 feet. How would they find the length of their new trophy case?

Please answer by tomorrow thank you!

Answer 1

Formula for Perimeter is P = 2 (L+W)
Plug in what you know…
Perimeter is “P”, so 36
Width is “W”, so 3

36 = 2 (L+3)
36/2 = L+3
18 = L+3
18-3 = L
15 = L
Length is 15 feet
