Problema Solution
The perimeter of a rectangle is 30 feet. The length is 1 foot longer
than the width. Find the dimensions. Write a system if linear
equations and solve the resulting system. Let x be the length & y be
the width.
2x+2y=
Answer provided by our tutors
2x+2y=30, implies x+y=15
x-y=1
Adding the two equations, we get 2x=16, hence x=8, hence y=7
x=8,y=7
