The perimeter of the rectangle in the figure is $10 p + 6$ and its length is $3 p + 2$ . Find its breadth.

Class 8Adding and Subtracting ExpressionsAlgebra

A $2 p + 1$
B $4 p + 2$
C $2 p + 4$
D $7 p + 4$

Step-by-Step Solution

Length + breadth = half the perimeter =

5 p + 3

. Breadth

= 5 p + 3 - (3 p + 2) = 2 p + 1.7 p + 4

comes from not halving the perimeter.

Answer: A)

2 p + 1
