Answer:

16 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle be x ft

Therefore, length = (x + 2) ft

Area of the rectangle = 15 square ft

x(x + 2) = 15 \\  \\  {x}^{2}  + 2x = 15 \\  \\  {x}^{2}  + 2x - 15 = 0 \\  \\  {x}^{2}  + 5x - 3x - 15 = 0 \\  \\ x(x + 5) - 3(x + 5) = 0 \\  \\ (x + 5)(x - 3) = 0 \\  \\ x + 5 = 0 \: or \:  \: x - 3 = 0 \\  \\ x =  - 5  \:  \: or \:  \: x = 3 \\  \\  \because \: x \: can \: not \: be \:  - ve \\  \\  \therefore \: x = 3 \\   \\  \implies \: x + 2 = 3 + 2 = 5 \\  \\ perimeter \: of \: rectngle  \\ = 2(5 + 3)  \\  = 2 \times 5 \\  = 16 \: ft
