Question

The perimeter of a rectangular swimming pool is 154 m. Its length is 2 m more than twice its breadth. What are

the length and the breadth of the pool?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the breadth be x

Length=2x+2

According to the problem,

2(x+(2x+2))=154m

=>2x+4x+4=154

=>6x=154-4

=>x=150/6

=>x=25

Length=2x+2=52m

Breadth=25m

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let breadth of rectangle swimming pool = x

Given,

Length is 2m more than twice it's breadth

Length=(2x+2)m

Now,

Perimeter=2(length+ breadth)

=2(2x+2+X)

=2(3x+2)

=6x+4
