Answer 2

Answer:

Length of the rectangle is 11 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, perimeter of the rectangle is 32 cm and width of the rectangle is 5 cm.

Let,

• length of the rectangle = x cm

Formula used :

${\boxed{\bold{Perimeter\:of\: rectangle=2(l+w)}}}$

According to the question,

$\mapsto \sf \: 2(x + 5) = 32 \\ \\ \mapsto \sf \: x + 5 = \dfrac{32}{2} \\ \\ \mapsto \sf \: x + 5 = 16 \\ \\ \mapsto \sf \: x = 16 - 5 \\ \\ \mapsto \sf \: x = 11$

Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 11 cm.
