Question

7b assume that the perimeter of this parallelogram is 16 cm. express this word problem as an equation in terms of x and y. 16 = 2(x + y)

Explanation:

Step1: Record la fórmula del perímetro

El perímetro $P$ de un paralelogramo con lados $x$ e $y$ es $P = 2(x + y)$.

Step2: Sustituir el valor del perímetro

Dado que $P = 16$ cm, sustituimos $P$ en la fórmula: $16=2(x + y)$.

Answer:

$16 = 2(x + y)$
