Answer:

24units

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4y + 3) + 2(5y - 1) = 94

18y + 4 = 94

y = 5

WX = 5y - 1 = 5(5) - 1 = 24units

First we need to find the value of y .

[tex]Perimeter = 2 \times ( \: (4y + 3) + (5y - 1) \: ) \\ [/tex]

[tex]Perimeter = 2 \times (9y + 2)[/tex]

[tex]Perimeter = 18y + 4[/tex]

Question told us that perimeter is 94 ,

Thus :

[tex]94 = 18y + 4[/tex]

[tex]18y + 4 = 94[/tex]

Subtract sides 4

[tex]18y + 4 - 4 = 94 - 4[/tex]

[tex]18y = 90[/tex]

Divide sides by 18

[tex] \frac{18y}{18} = \frac{90}{18} \\ [/tex]

[tex]y = 5[/tex]

The face sides in the rectangular are same.

Thus :

[tex]VY = WX[/tex]

So ;

[tex] WX = 5y - 1[/tex]

[tex]WX = 5(5) - 1[/tex]

[tex]WX = 25 - 1[/tex]

[tex]WX = 24[/tex]

Done...
