Respuesta :

P = 2L + 2W
L = 7
W = 5
P= ???
P = 2*7 + 2*5
P = 14 + 10
P = 24 feet of lace.

The rectangular quilt has length 7 feet and width as 5 feet.

In order to find the perimeter, we have this formula:

[tex] P = 2(l+w) [/tex]

Plugging these values in the formula:

[tex] P = 2(7+5) [/tex]

Perimeter = 24 feet.

So 24 feet of lace are needed to cover the edges of the quilt.
