The only option (d) which is 54 feet is the possible perimeter of the rectangle.
Step-by-step explanation:
One side of the rectangle is given to be 22 feet.
Now, if the other side of the rectangle is x feet, then the perimeter of the rectangle will be given by 2(22 + x) feet = (44 + 2x) feet.
Therefore, the possible value of the perimeter of the rectangle is greater than 44 feet because x must have a value greater than 0.
Since, x > 0
⇒ 2x > 0
⇒ 44 + 2x > 44
⇒ Perimeter > 44
Therefore, the only option (d) which is 54 feet > 44 feet is the possible perimeter of the rectangle. (Answer)
