P=2l+2w
Since it is given that P=26m, length is 5 more than its width (w+5), we'll work it out in the perimeter formula.
26=2(w+5)+2w
26=2w+10+2w
26=4w+10
4w=26-10
4w=16
w=4
Thus the width is 4m. Let's find the length.
l=w+5
l=4+5
l=9
The length of a pen is 9m.

Answer:
B. 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve this by setting up system of equations:
0.25x + 0.10y = 3.95
x + y = 20
x equals the number of quarters and y equals the number of dimes. 0.25 is the value of a quarter and 0.10 is the value of a dime.
1. Multiply one equation to have the same coefficient as the other
0.10 · (x + y = 20) = 0.10x + 0.10y = 2
2. Subtract to find the value of one variable
0.25x + 0.10y = 3.95
<u>- 0.10x + 0.10y = 2</u>
0.15x = 1.95
3. Solve for x by dividing both sides by 0.15
x = 13
