Answer 2

Given

$\bold{Perimeter \ of \ the \ rectangle} = 70 \ m$

SOMETHING YOU NEED TO KNOW

• Area of the rectangle = Length * Breadth
• Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(Length + Breadth)

$\implies 2(x+y)=70\\\implies x+y=35--(1)$

$\bold{Length \ is \ 5m \ more \ than \ the \ breadth}$

Let the length and breadth of the rectangle be x and y respectively.

$\implies x=y+5\\\implies x-y=5--(2)$

Solving (1) and (2), we get,

$x+y=35\\\underline{x-y=5}\\\underline{\underline{2x=40}}\\\implies x=20$

$\implies y = 15$

$\boxed{\boxed{\bold{Therefore, \ the \ length \ and \ the \ breadth \ of \ the \rectangle \ are \ 20 m \ and \ 5m \ respectively}}}}}$
