The equation P= 21 + 2w models the perimeter, P, of a rectangle with a length of / units and a width of w units.

natima [27]

Answer:

width = 10 units and length = 20 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be w

so Length will be 2w

using the rectangle formula:

$\sf Perimeter \ of \ rectangle= 2L + 2W$

$\sf 60= 2(2w) + 2w$

$\sf 60= 4w + 2w$

$\sf 60= 6w$

$\sf w = 10 \ units$

Find length:

$\sf length = 2w$

$\sf length = 2(10)$

$\sf length = 20 \ units$
