Question

recall that perimeter measures the distance around a plane figure, and area measures the amount of surface of a plane figure. the expression 2l + 2w gives the perimeter of the rectangle (measured in units), and the expression lw gives its area (measured in square units). complete the table below for the given length and width. be sure to include units.
length (l) width (w) perimeter of rectangle (2l + 2w) area of rectangle (lw)
8 in. 7 in. perimeter of rectangle (2l + 2w) =

Explanation:

Step1: Identify length and width values

$L = 8$ in, $W = 7$ in

Step2: Calculate perimeter using formula

$P=2L + 2W=2\times8+2\times7$
$=16 + 14$
$=30$ in

Step3: Calculate area using formula

$A = LW=8\times7 = 56$ in²

Answer:

Perimeter of rectangle ($2L + 2W$) = 30 in
Area of rectangle ($LW$) = 56 in²
