Question

the length of a rectangle is 5 units more than its breadth the perimeter is 8 unit find the length and the breath of the rectangle ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:let breadth be X units

The length = X+5 units

Perimeter = 8 units

Perimeter = 2* (l+b) put in values of perimeter , length and breadth

8 = 2* (X+5+X)

4 = 2X + 5

-1 = 2X

X= -1/2

this isn’t possible as lenth and breadth can’t be negative
