Question 689064: The length of a rectangle is 5 more than the width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 168 inches. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! l = 5 + w
p = 168
...
p = 2l + 2w
168 = 2(5+w) + 2w
168 = 10 + 2w + 2w
168 - 10 = 4w
158 = 4w
...
l = 5 + w
l = 5 + 39.5
