Please help me with this math problem!

W=x
L=2x+17

Double everything since we need to lengths and two widths to find the perimeter

2x+17+2x+17+x+x = 76
Combine like terms

6x+34=76
Solve for x
First step is subtract 34 from both sides

6x=42
Next you divide both sides by 6 in order to get x by itself

X=7

Now you plug in 7 into the x’s in length and width

W=7 cm
L=31 cm

THE WIDTH IS 31 CM

Check:

7+7+31+31 = 76 cm
It equals 76 cm just like the problem said so therefore it is right.

Look at the answers and be logical, try rounding up so instead of 45% try 50% now 22.5 would be half the number, have a look at the answers and see what is closest to double 22.5. C looks reasonable. Hope I helped, have a nice day :)
