Answer 1

Answer:

A. Width = 25   Length = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Length = L = Width - 10

Width = W

Perimeter of a rectangle

=> 2 (L + B) = 80

=> 2 (W - 10 + W) = 80

=> 2 (2W - 10) = 80

=> 4W -20 = 80

=> 4W -20 + 20 = 80 + 20

=> 4W = 100

=> 4W/4 = 100/4

=> W = 25

Width = 25

Length = 25 - 10 = 15

So, the answer is A.
