Answer:

Width is 10

Length is 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter is calculated as 2(w+l) or w+w+l+l. When you put those two numbers into the equation 2(10+18) or 10+10+18+18, you get the exact same answer of 56, and since 10 is eight less than 18, it would be the width.

Answer:

<h2>Length L = 18 m </h2><h2>Width W = 10 m </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter P = 2L + 2W

where

Perimeter P = 56 m

Width W = L - 8 m

<u>find: </u>

length L

width W

<u>solution: </u>

just plugin the values into the formula:

P = 2L + 2W

56 = 2L + 2(L - 8)

56 = 2L + 2L - 16

56 + 16 = 4L

L = 72/4

L = 18 m

<u>solve for W: </u>

substitute L=18 back into the equation W=L-8

W = 18 - 8

W = 10 m

therefore:

length L = 18 m

Width W = 10 m

<u>proof: </u>

56 = 2(18) + 2(10)

56 = 36 + 20

56 = 56 ----- OK
