Answer:

x = 8

length is 12 meters

width is 9 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2l + 2w

where l is the length and w is the width.

(There are two sides with the same length, and two sides with the same width.)

Let l = x + 4 and w = 2x - 7

so 2(x+4) + 2(2x-7) = 42

Distribute the 2s

2x + 8 + 4x - 14 = 42

Combine like terms

2x + 4x + 8 - 14 = 42

Group

6x - 6 = 42

Add 6 to both sides

6x = 48

Divide 6 on both sides

x = 8

Plug back in

l = 8 + 4 = 12 meters

and w = 2(8) - 7 = 16 - 7 = 9 meters

Double-check: 2 * 12 + 2 * 9 = 24 + 18 = 42
