Answer:

length = 11 , width = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by letting x represent the width.

then double the width = 2x and 5 less than this = 2x-5

meaning the length is 2x - 5

now perimeter = 2x width + 2 x length

therefore 2x + 2(2x - 5) = 38

so 2x + 4x - 10 = 38

⇒ 6l = 38 + 10 = 48 ⇒ l = 8

width = x = 8cm and length = 2x - 5 = 16 - 5 = 11cm

check check:  ( 2  x 8 )  + ( 2 x  11 )  =  16  +  22  =  38

<em>Answer</em><em> </em><em>is given below with explanations</em><em>. </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Given</em><em> </em><em>that</em><em> </em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>-2</em><em>.</em><em>5</em>

<em>To</em><em> </em><em>find</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>value</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>x</em><em>+</em><em>13</em>

<em>Ob</em><em> </em><em>substituting</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>value</em><em> </em><em>in</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>given equation</em><em> </em>

<em>we</em><em> </em><em>get</em><em> </em>

<em>=</em><em> </em><em>-2</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em>+</em><em>13</em>

<em>=</em><em> </em><em>13</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>.</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>we</em><em> </em><em>can</em><em> </em><em>also</em><em> </em><em>write</em><em> </em><em>like</em><em> </em><em>this</em><em>)</em>

<em>=</em><em> </em><em>10</em><em>.</em><em>5</em>
