Lesson 1.3 Use Formulas
Vocabulary and Concepts:A variable is a letter used to represent
one or more numbers. A formula gives a relationship between
two or more variables. Some common formulas are as follows:

Perimeter and Area of a Rectangle
The perimeter p of a rectangle with length l and width w is :
P=2l + 2w
The area A of a rectangle with length l and width w is:
A = lw

Perimeter and Area of a Square
The perimeter p of a square with side length s is:
P =4s
The area A of a square with side length s is:
A = s²

Distance, Rate, and Time
Distance traveled d is equal to the speed (rate of travel) r times the travel time t.
d=rt

Total Cost
The total cost T of n items is the cost c of one item (the unit cost) times the number of items.
T=cn

You Try:
A picture frame holds a picture that has a length of 6 inches and a width of 4 inches. What are the perimeter and the area of the picture?

Answer: What is the length?
6 in. What is the width?
4 in. What is the formula for perimeter for this shape?
P= 2l + 2w P = 2(6) + 2(4)
= 12 + 8 = 20 in. What is the formula for area for this shape? A=lw
A=6(4)= 24 in.²

Example 2: Finding distance traveled.
A sea turtle travels at an average rate of about 20 kilometers per day. How far can a sea turtle travel in 4 days?
d = rt
= 20 · 4
= 80 km
Write the formula for distance traveled.Substitute 20 for r and 4 for t.
Multiply.
A sea turtle can travel 80 kilometers in 4 days.

Example 3: Finding total cost.
A school is purchasing 35 microscopes that cost $119 each for the science department. What is the total cost?
T = cn
= 119 · 35
= 4165
Write the formula for total cost.Substitute 119 for c and 35 for n.Multiply.
The total cost for 35 microscopes that cost $119 each is $4165.

Answer:
What is the formula for finding total cost?T = cn
What is the cost of one item?$3
What is the number of items?26
T = 3 · 26 = $78
