Step-by-step explanation:
Then length =5+x
Area=lengthxbreadth=50 cm²
x(5+x)=50
x²+5x-50=0 on solving x=5 or x=-10
x can't be -ve so x=5
Width=x=5cm
Length=5+x=10cm
Perimeter=2(l+w)=2(5+10)=30cm

Step-by-step explanation:
let width be x cm
given condition is x+5 cm
area= 50cm^2
area of a rectangle= length* width
50cm^2=(x+5)(x)
50=x^2+5x
x^2+5x-50=0
x^2+10x-5x-50=0
x(x+10)-5(x+10)=0
(x-5)(x+10)=0
x= 5 and x=-10
it cannot be negative
so
x= 5
width= 5 cm
length= x+5= 5+5=10cm
perimeter of the r rectangle = 2(l+w)
=2(10+5)
=2(15)
= 30cms
