The perimeter of a rectangle is 34 units. Its width is 6.5 units.

1. Write an equation to determine the length (l) of the rectangle.

2. Find the length of the rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Equation, in terms of l:

Equation:6.5 + 6.5 + L +L =34

10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find perimeter you need L+W+L+W. You have a width of 6.5. When you plug that into the equation you get 6.5 + 6.5+ L+L=34. Combine like terms (6.5 +6.5). That leaves you with 13 + 2L = 34. Now, you want to subtract 13 from both sides to isolate the L. You now have 2L = 21. Now you should divide everything by 2. 21/2 = 10.5

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
