The rectangle at the right has a perimeter of 20 inches. Find the length of the rectangle. EXAMPLE 4 Finding an Unknown Length p = 2l + 2w Write perimeter formula. 20 = 2l + 2 (4) Substitute 20 for Pand 4 for w. 20 = 2l + 8 Multiply. 20 – 8 = 2l + 8 – 8 Subtract 8 from each side. 12 = 2l Simplify.
ANSWER 2l 12 2 The length of the rectangle is 6 inches. 2 = EXAMPLE 4 Finding an Unknown Length Divide each side by 2. Simplify. 6 = l
A polar bear exhibit includes a rectangular pool and rocks. Find the area of the region with rocks. Let rbe the area of the region with rocks. EXAMPLE 5 Using an Area Formula Zoo Exhibit SOLUTION
40 56 = 20 32 + r ANSWER The area of the region with rocks is 1600 square feet. EXAMPLE 5 Using an Area Formula 2240 = 640 + r Write an algebraic model. 2240 – 640 = 640 – 640 + r Subtract 640 from each side. 1600 = r Simplify.
