Answer 1

74/4=18.5 is the width

Answer 2

Answer:Width = 15 units .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : The width of a rectangle is 4 more than half the length. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 74,

To find : what is the width.

Solution : We have given perimeter of the rectangle is 74,

Let the Length = x .

According to question :

The width of a rectangle is 4 more than half the length.

Width = 4 + $\frac{x}{2}$.

Perimeter = 2 length + 2 width .

Plugging the values,

74 = 2 ( x ) + 2 (4+$\frac{x}{2}$).

74 = 2x + 8 + x .

Combine like terms

74 = 2x +x + 8.

74 = 3x +8.

On subtracting both sides by 8.

74 -8= 3x .

66 = 3x

On dividing both sides by 3

x = 22.

Width = Width = 4 + $\frac{22}{2}$.

Width = 4 +11.

Width = 15 units .

Therefore, Width = 15 units .
