The perimeter of a rectangle is dependent on the length of each of its sides. Suppose the base of a rectangle is two more than its height. Complete an input/output table for at least three pairs of inputs and outputs. Make sure to use values that make sense within the context of this situation.
Accepted Solution
A:
let x---------> length of the base of a rectangle y--------->height of the base of a rectangle
we know that perimeter of a rectangle=2*[x+y] and x=y+2------> y=x-2
step 1 inputs x=3 x=5 x=10
step 2 find the outputs
for x=3 y=x-2----> y=3-2-----> y=1 perimeter=2*[3+1]-----> 8
for x=5 y=x-2----> y=5-2-----> y=3 perimeter=2*[5+3]-----> 16
for x=10 y=x-2----> y=10-2-----> y=8 perimeter=2*[10+8]----->36
