Problema Solution
The perimeter of a rectangle is 74 feet. The width of the rectangle is two more than five times the length. What is the length and width of this rectangle?
Answer provided by our tutors
P= 2l +2w
If w= 5l+2,
p= 2l + 2(5l + 2)
74=12l+4
70=12l
l=15/2=7.5
74=2(7.5) + 2w
2w=74/15
w=74/30=37/15
