The length of a rectangle is 2 inches more than twice its width, and its perimeter is 60 inches. Find the length and width of the rectangle. If w = the width of the rectangle, then the length equals _____. 2w + 2 2w - 2 2w 2 -2w

Respuesta :

Answer:

2 + 2w

w = 9.3in

l = 20.7 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 x (length + breadth)

legnth = 2 + 2w

width = w

2 x (2 + 2w + w ) = 60

(2 + 2w + w ) = 30

2 + 3w = 30

3w = 28

w = 9.3

length = 2 + 2x9.3 = 20.7
