The length and the width of the rectangle are 20 and 14 inches respectively
<h3>How to find the length and width?</h3>
The given parameters are:
Length = 6 + Width
Perimeter = 68 inches
The perimeter of a rectangle is calculated as:
Perimeter = 2 * (Length + Width)
So, we have:
2 * (Length + Width) = 68
Divide both sides by 2
Length + Width = 34
Substitute Length = 6 + Width in Length + Width = 34
6 + Width + Width = 34
Evaluate the like terms
2 * Width = 28
Divide both sides by 2
Width = 14
Substitute Width = 14 in Length = 6 + Width
Length = 6 + 14
Evaluate
Length = 20
Hence, the length and the width of the rectangle are 20 and 14 inches respectively
