Fill in the blanks to make the statements true.
The length of a rectangle is two times its breadth. Its perimeter is 60 cm.
(a) If the breadth of rectangle is x cm, the length of the rectangle is __________
(b) Perimeter in terms of x is _________
(c) The equation formed is _________
(d) The solution of the equation is _________
Let breadth of the rectangle be x cm.
∴ Length of the rectangle would be 2x cm
∴ Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(2x + x) = 6x
According to question,
x = 60/6 = 10
∴ 2x = 2 × 10 = 20
(a) 2x
(b) 2(2x + x) or 6x
(c) 6x = 60
(d) x = 10
