Given:
A desk is shaped like a rectangle.
The length is l =2.6 feet,
The width is w = 1.3 feet.
Required:
We need to find the perimeter of the desk.
Explanation:
Consider the perimeter of the rectangle formula.
[tex]P=2(l+w)[/tex]Substitute l=2.6 and w =1.3 in the formula.
[tex]P=2(2.6+1.3)[/tex][tex]P=2(3.9)[/tex][tex]P=7.8\text{ feet.}[/tex]Final answer:
The perimeter of the desk is 7.8 feet,
