The length of a rectangle is 2cm longer than the width. The perimeter is 52cm. What is the length and width of the rectangle?
1 answer:
Answer:
Width = 12 cm
Length = 14 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Rectangle:
Let the width = x cm
So, the length = (x+2) cm
Perimeter = 52 cm
2 *(l+b) = 52
2 *(x+2 + x) = 52
2 * ( 2x + 2) = 52
2x + 2 = 52/ 2
2x + 2 = 26
2x = 26- 2
2x = 24
x = 24/2
x = 12
Width = 12 cm
Length = 14 cm
