Question

Find the dimensions of a rectangle given that the perimeter is 74 cm and the length is 1 cm more than twice the width.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Length = 25cm, width = 12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be x

length = 1 + 2x

Perimeter = 2( l + b)

74 = 2( x + 1 + 2x)

3x + 1 = 37

3x = 36

x = 12
