Answer : C
Explanation:
To find the perimeter of the figure, find the sum of the lengths of its sides. 2a + a + b + 2a + b + a + 2b = 6a + 4b.
Answer : E
Explanation:
Let x = the width of the room;
23x = 322;
x = 322 ֳ· 23 = 14
23 + 14 + 23 + 14 = 74 feet.
Answer : A
Explanation:
The perimeter of the figure is x + 2y + 3x גˆ’ y +2x +3y +5x + y = 11x +5y.
Answer : E
Explanation:
Let x, 2x, and 3x be the measures of the three angles. Then:
x + 2x +3x = 180
6x = 180
x = 180 ֳ· 6 = 30
3x = 3(30) = 90
