2. The length of a rectangle is 5 cm more than its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 40cm, find the area of the rectangle.

area of the rectangle =

Step-by-step explanation:

width = x cm

length = x + 5 cm

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

width = 7.5cm

length = 7.5 + 5 = 12.5cm

Area of the rectangle = length × width

.632

step-by-step explanation:

6 * 1/10 = 3/5

3*0.01 = 0.03

3/5 + 0.03 = .63

2*0.002 = .002

.63 + 0.002 = .632
