The length and width of a rectangle are in a 3:5 ratio. The perimeter of the rectangle is 64. What are the length and width of the rectangle? The length is? And the width is?

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We know that the perimeter is 2L+2W. Le'ts plug in the values 3 and 5 from our ratio and see what our perimeter would be with that.

2(3)+2(5)

6+10

16

How can we get this 16 to 64?

64/16=4

So, we need to multiply this length and width by four to get 64 as our perimeter!

3*4=12

5*4=20

We can plug this into our perimeter equation

2(12)+2(20)

24+40

64

Therefore, our length is 12 and our width is 20.

Have a wonderful day! :D

step-by-step explanation:

when a number is between two straight lines it means the absolute value.

to find absolute value you need to know how many numbers is that number away from 0.

when finding absolute value the number will always come out positive

so absolute value of -3 is 3

absolute value of 3/2 is 3/2

absolute value of -2 is 2

absolute value of 3.5 is 3.5

absolute value of -1 is 1

now put these numbers in order:

a)   |-1|, |3/2|, |-2|, |-3|, |3.5|
