How to Answer Open Response Math Questions RASI Approach R - Restate the Question... A - with the answer. S - Show your work. I - Offer additional insight.
a. The perimeter of the field is 160 feet. P = 2(L) + 2(W) P = 2(50) + 2(30) P = 100 + 60
b. The area of the field is 150 feet squared. A = L(W) A = 50(30) A = 150
c. The new area 240 feet squared. A = L(W) A = 60(40) A = 240 I got the 60 by adding 10 feet to the length and the 40 by adding 10 to the width.
