Perimeter of any figure is all its sides summed up
for a rectangle, with two equal pairs, that means, length + length + width + width or 2length + 2width, or 2(length + width)
but we know the length is 7/5 the width
width = w
perimeter = P
and the length is 7/5 of that

Answer:
x = 49
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
=
( cross- multiply )
5(x - 16) = 3(x + 6) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
5x - 80 = 3x + 18 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
2x - 80 = 18 ( add 80 to both sides )
2x = 98 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 49
