The area of four walls of room is given by `A= 2h ( l + b)`. Make `l` as the subject of the formula. Find `l` when `A = 100 "m"^2, h = 5 "m" , and b = 4 "m"`.

A

`l =(A)/( 2h) - b, 6m`

B

`l = (A)/( 2h) - b, 5 m`

C

`l = ( A)/( 2b) - h , 4m`

D

`l = (A)/( 2b) - h, 8m`

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to manipulate the formula for the area of the four walls of a room and then substitute the given values to find the length \( l \). ### Step 1: Start with the given formula The formula for the area of the four walls is given by: \[ A = 2h(l + b) \] ### Step 2: Rearrange the formula to make \( l \) the subject To isolate \( l \), we will first divide both sides by \( 2h \): \[ \frac{A}{2h} = l + b \] Next, we will subtract \( b \) from both sides: \[ l = \frac{A}{2h} - b \] ### Step 3: Substitute the given values into the formula Now we will substitute \( A = 100 \, m^2 \), \( h = 5 \, m \), and \( b = 4 \, m \) into the rearranged formula: \[ l = \frac{100}{2 \times 5} - 4 \] ### Step 4: Calculate \( l \) First, calculate \( 2 \times 5 \): \[ 2 \times 5 = 10 \] Now substitute this back into the equation: \[ l = \frac{100}{10} - 4 \] Calculate \( \frac{100}{10} \): \[ \frac{100}{10} = 10 \] Now substitute this value back into the equation: \[ l = 10 - 4 \] Finally, calculate \( 10 - 4 \): \[ l = 6 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \( l \) is: \[ l = 6 \, m \] ---
