Tge area of a rectangle is 16 square feet.what is the greatest perimeter the rectangle can have if the width of the rectangle is greater than i foot?explain the answer

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Area of a rectangle = Length & Width = 16 sq.ft.
Take factors of 16 = 1, 2, 4, 8, 16
The combinations will be 1, 16 and 2, 8. (4 can't be taken as it would be a square).
The width is supposed to be more than 1 foot. In that case the option is only to take the combination of 2 and 8.

Perimeter = 2 (Length + Width)
= 2 (8 + 2)
= 2 (10)
= 20 feet.

The greatest perimeter that this rectangle with more than 1 feet width will be 20 feet.

Answer: 0.25

The starting rectangle (on the left) is larger than the ending rectangle (on the right). This means the scale factor is some value between 0 and 1, not including 0 or 1 itself.

To find the scale factor, we divide corresponding sides. We divide the vertical side 1.5 of the figure on the right over its corresponding pair on the left.

So,

scale factor = (new)/(old) = 1.5/6 = 0.25

Since 0.25 = 1/4, this means that the rectangle on the right is 1/4th as small compared to the one on the right.
