Answer:

P= 2*Lenght + 2*Width

Since the perimeter is 56 inches we can solve for the lenght with this equation:

56 in = 2*12in + 2*Length

And solving for the length we got:

Length = \frac{56in -24 in}{2} 16 in

So then the lenght = 16 inhes and the width of 12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

For a rectangle of width 12 inches and lenght y inches we know that the perimeter is given by:

P= 2*Lenght + 2*Width

Since the perimeter is 56 inches we can solve for the lenght with this equation:

56 in = 2*12in + 2*Length

And solving for the length we got:

Length = \frac{56in -24 in}{2} 16 in

So then the lenght = 16 inhes and the width of 12 inches

add 5y to both sides

10y = 60

divide both sides by 10

y = 6
