Jose is creating a map in the shape of a rectangle whose length is 4 inches longer than its width. Let stand for the width of the map in inches. Write an equation gives the perimeter of the map in terms of ?

P = 4w + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Jose is creating a map in the shape of a rectangle whose length is 4 inches longer than its width. Let w stand for the width of the map in inches. Write an equation gives the perimeter of the map in terms of w?

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(L +w)

L is the length of the rectangle

w is the width

If the length is 4 inches longer than its width, then;

l = w + 4

Substitute into the expression;

P = 2 (L+w)

P = 2(w+4+w)

P = 2 (2w+4)

P = 4w + 8

Hence the perimeter of the map in terms of w is P = 4w + 8

the entire expression should be subtracted from 30. to subtract the quantity, distribute the negative sign, which changes the signs on the terms. so, the –2 changes to positive and gets added to 30 instead of subtracted from it.

hope this ! ^w^

lol we need to see what the question is asking about
