Answer: 11
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter of ractangle = 2(L+B)
let B=X
then L=2x-6
so, 2(x+2x-6)=54
=2x+4x-12=54
=6x=54+12
=x=66/6
=x=11

ANSWER:
Given:
The length of a rectangle is 6 less than twice its breadth if the perimeter of the rectangle is 54.
To find:
Find its length & breadth.
Solution
⚫Let breadth be x
⚫Let length of rectangle= 2x -6
⚫Perimeter of rectangle= 54.
Therefore,
We know that, perimeter of rectangle
=) 2(length+breadth)
So,
=) 2(2x-6 + x) = 54
=) 2(3x -6) = 54
=) 6x -12 = 54
=) 6x = 54 +12
=) 6x = 66
=) x = 66/6
=) x = 11
Thus,
Breadth,x = 11
Length, 2x -6 = 2x11-6= 22 -6 = 16
