I don't know the math equations on how to do it to be honest, but I know you're just looking for the answer.
60+60=120 260-120=140 140/2=70 70*60=4200
Your answer is 4200ft^2
Answer:
Given;
The total distance of the rectangular-shaped bedroom is 260feet.
This also means that the perimeter of the room is 260feet.
The width of the room is 60feet.
Let the perimeter of the bedroom be p = 260feet
The perimeter of a rectangle p = 2 (length + width)
i.e p = 2 (length + width) --------------------- (i)
Substituting p=260 and width=60 in equation (i) gives;
260 = 2 (length + 60)
Dividing both sides by 2 gives
130 = length + 60
Making length the subject of the formula gives;
length = 130 - 60
length = 70feet
Since we have the length=70feet and width=60feet for the bedroom, we can calculate the area as follows:
Area of rectangle(bedroom) = length * breadth
Area = 70 * 60 = 4200
Therefore, the area of Wendy's bedroom is 4200 squarefeet.
This can also be written as 4200[tex]ft^{2}[/tex]
Hope this helps!
