Question

The length of the rectangle is three more than the width find the length of the rectangle if the perimeter is 98 inches

Answer 1

Answer:

length is 26 and width is 23

Step-by-step explanation:

let width be x

then length is 3+x since it is 3 more than the width

perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w

98=2 [3+x] + 2x

98=6+2x+2x

98=6+4x

98-6=4x

92=4x

x=23

width is 23 and

breadth is 26
