The perimeter of a rectangle is 158 cm. If the breadth of the rectangle is 28 cm, find its length. also find the area of the rectangle.
and
Find the value of x : 8x+4=3(x-1)+7
do these questions with the explanation pls i need it fast

Answer:
1. Perimeter = 158 cm
Breadth = 28 cm
Length = x
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(x + b)
158 cm = 2(x + b)
158 cm = 2(x + 28)
158 = 2x+ 56
158 - 56 = 2x
102 = 2x
102/2 = x
51 = x
Length = 51 cm
Area = l * b
Area = 51 * 28
Area = 1,428 cm²
2. 8x + 4 = 3(x - 1) + 7
8x + 4 = 3x - 3 + 7
8x + 4 = 3x + 4
8x - 3x = 4 - 4
5x = 0
x = 0/5
x = 0
Question 1:
The perimeter of a rectangle is 158 cm. If the breadth of the rectangle is 28 cm, find its length. also find the area of the rectangle.
Answer:
Given,
The perimeter of a rectangle= 158 cm
Breadth = 28 cm
We know that the perimeter of a rectangle = 2 ( l+ b)
[Opening the brackets] → 2l +2b = 158 cm
= 2l + 2 x 28 = 158 cm
2l + 56 = 158 cm
2l = 158 - 56 = 102
Therefore length = 102/2 = 51 cm
Formula for area of a rectangle = l x b
= 51 x 28 =
Therefore,
Length of the rectangle = 51 cm
Area of the rectangle =
Question 2:
Find the value of x : 8x+4=3(x-1)+7
Answer:
8x+4 = 3(x-1)+7
[opening the brackets]
= 8x+4 = 3x-3+7
[moving the variables to one side and the constants to the other side]
= 8x - 3x = -3 +7 -4
[ The LHS becomes 0 as we can cut off the negatives as well as the positives by cutting off -7 and 7]
= 5x = 0
Therefore the value of x = 0
