Solve with using an algebraic equation an unknown.
The perimeter of a rectangle shed is 43 feet. It's length is 5 feet more than twice its width. Find the length and width of the shed. Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! let width be x
length = 2x+5
The perimeter of rectangle = 2(L+W)
2(x+2x+5) =43
solve for x you will get the width
