The perimeter of a rectangle is twice the sum of its length and its width. the perimeter is 28 meters and its length is 2 meters more than twice it’s width.

what is it’s length ?

The perimeter of the rectangle

=

28

meters.

Let the width be denoted as

x

,

The length

=

2

+

(length is 2 meters more than twice the width)

The formula for perimeter of a rectangle is :

perimeter =

2

×

( width + length )

x+y = 29, 5x + 2y = 100
