Hi
Ok so the length is 10mm longer than the width and the perimeter is more than 80mm.
Length = w+10
Width = w
So lets add the lengths
There are
w + 10
w + 10
w
w
= 4w + 20
we know what 4w + 20 > 80 so
4w > 80-20 = 4w > 60 = w > 15
Length = w + 10
Length = w + 10 >25
So I am guessing that the answer is Width > 15
Hope this helps
