What is the perimeter of a yard that is 40 feet by 50 feet

Your answer is 180 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is 2l + 2w

Given equation:

2 (50) + 2 (40)

Use distributive property

100 + 80

Add

180

Or you can use this equation.

The length is the sum of the width and 10

Given equation:

2 (w + 10) + 2w

Distributive Property

2w + 20 + 2w

Combine Like terms

4w + 20

Substitute the variable with the actual width

4 (40) + 20

Multiply

160 + 20

Add

180
