Question

the length of a rectangle is 3 cm greater than its width if the perimeter is 34 cm , find the width and the length

Answer 1

Answer:

Width= 7cm, Length= 7+3=10cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the width of the rectangle be x cm . So, length of rectangle = x+3

We know that perimeter = 2×( length + breadth)

34=2(x+3+x) =2(2x+3)

4x+6=34

4x=34-6

4x=28

x=28/4

x=7

Answer 2

Answer:

width = 14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 2 ( length + width )

width = perimeter - length = 34 - 3 = 14 cm
