Question

length of a rectangle is 5m less than twice its bredth if the perimeter of the rectangle is 62m find the length and bredth

Answer 1

Answer:

12 and 19

Step-by-step explanation:

suppose that breadth is x

then length is 2x-5

perimeter of rectangle =2 (l+b)

62=2 (2x-5+x)

$\frac{62}{2} = 2(2x - 5 + x)$

31=(3x-5)

31+5=3x

36=3x

x=12

length =12m

and breadth =2×12-5

=19m
