Problema Solution

The length of a rectangle is 7 meters more than twice the width. The perimeter is 68 meters. Find the length and width.

Answer provided by our tutors

Let 'l' and 'w' stand for the length and width of the rectangle. We can write:


l=2w+7

2l+2w=68


Using Algebrator to solve for 'l' and 'w', we get:

l= 25 m

w= 9 m
