Answer 1

Answer:

See image

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w=width

And let l=length

Perimeter is the distance all the way around the outside of the shape. Add up all the sides to find it.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let the width of the rectangle=x

the length=x+2.3

Since perimeter=28.6

We know that perimeter of a rectangle is given by

P=2(l+w)

28.6=2(x+2.3+x)

28.6=2(2x+2.3)

28.6=4x+4.6

28.6-4.6=4x

4x=24

x=24/4=6

Therefore width is 6inches and length is 8.3inches
