Question

a rectangle is no more than six inches wide and its perimeter measures 28 in at least how long is the rectangle​

Answer 1

8in

Explanation:

Perimeter P, length l, width w

`P = 2 \cdot l + 2 \cdot w`

`l = (P - 2*w)/(2) = (28-12)/(2) = 8 in`

Answer 2

The length of rectangle = 8 inches

Explanation:

Formula:

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l+b)

l - Length of rectangle

b - Base of rectangle

It is given that,a rectangle is no more than six inches wide and its perimeter measures 28 in

To find the length of rectangle

Here width b = 6 and perimeter = 28

Perimeter = 2(l + b) = 28

l + b = 28/2 = 14

l + b = 14

l + 6 = 14

l = 14 - 6 = 8 inches
