Question

the length of a rectangle is one more than four times its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 62 meteres, fing the dimensions of the rectangle

Answer 1

Length (L): 4w + 1

width (w): w

Perimeter (P) = 2L + 2w

62 = 2(4w + 1) + 2(w)

62 = 8w + 2 + 2w

62 = 10w + 2

60 = 10w

6 = w

Length: L = 4w + 1 → 4(6) + 1 → 24 + 1 → 25

Answer: 6 meters x 25 meters
