The length of a rectangle is eight centimeters less than twice its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 20 centimeters, find its dimensions.

width of given rectangle = 6 cm

length of given rectangle =  4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the breadth be x cm

given that

The length of a rectangle is eight centimeters less than twice its width

length of rectangle in terms of x =  2(breadth ) - 8 =  2x - 8

we know perimeter of rectangle is given = 2(l + b)

thus, perimeter of given rectangle is = 2 ( x +  2x - 8) = 6x - 16

also given perimeter of the rectangle is 20 centimeters

thus,

6x - 16 = 20

6x = 20 + 16 = 36

x = 36/6 = 6

Thus,

width of given rectangle = 6 cm

length of given rectangle = 2*6 - 8 = 4 cm

answer

point o.

step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x

step-by-step explanation:

if you divide each number in the sequence, you'll see that they all have a multiple factor of 2. each number in the series, and any other numbers which may continue, will be multiplied by 2. therefore, y is the next number in the sequence, and x is the current one, so, our formula will be y = 2x.
