We know that to find the perimeter of a rectangle, you use $\"2l%2B2w=p\"$ . We know 2 of the variables for the rectangle, so let's plug them in to get $\"2l%2B2%289%29=44\"$ . After simplifying, we get $\"2l%2B18=44\"$ . Now, we're trying to isolate the l to find it. So, we subtract the 18: $\"2l=26\"$ and then divide by 2: $\"l=13\"$ . There's your answer! The length of the rectangle is 13. \n" ); document.write( "
