Question 847981: please answer this question:A rectangular room is 2m longer than it is wide. its perimeter is 70m. if the width of the room is wm, express the length of the room in terms of w. hence find the width of the room. Answer by rothauserc(4718) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! let w be the width and then the length is w+2
Perimeter = 70 = 2w + 2(w+2)
70 = 2w + 2w + 4
4w = 66
w = 16.5 meters
