Answer:
The length of the rectangle is - 29/13.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the Perimeter of the rectangle be x
Perimeter of the square = 4×side = 4(2x-3) = 8x-12
By condition,
Six times the Perimeter of rectangle is equal to four times the Perimeter of the square.
Therefore, 6x = 4(8x-12)
Or, 6x = 32x-48
Or, 6x-32x = - 48
Or, - 26x = - 48
Or, 26x = 48
Or, x = 48/26 = 24/13
Length of the rectangle = 3x/2 - 5 = 3/2×24/13-5
= 36/13-5 = 36-65/13
= - 29/13(answer).
