defon

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • width: 9 m
  • length: 13 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the width. Then the length is 2w-5, and the perimeter is ...

  P = 2(L+W)

  44 = 2((2w-5) +w)

  44 = 6w -10

  54 = 6w

  9 = w

  2(9) -5 = 13 = length

The length of the rectangle is 13 meters; the width is 9 meters.
