Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) True
The value which is possible for the length of the rectangle is:
7 in.
We know that in order to form a rectangle the length and width of a rectangle must be in positive dimension.
i.e. l,w>0
where l denotes length and w denotes width of the rectangle.
Also, The perimeter of a rectangle is 16 inches.
Hence, the equation that represents the perimeter of the rectangle is:
2l + 2w = 16.
i.e. on dividing both side of the equation by 2 we obtain:
l+w=8
Now, when l=7 we get w=1
Hence, it could be a possible value.
Also, when l=8 then w=0 which is not possible.
Similarly when l=9, w= -1 which is again not possible.
and when l=10 then w= -2 which is again not a possible dimension.
The answer is:
7 in.
