Question 477743: The length of a photo is 2 cm more than twice the width. If the perimeter of the photo is 34cm, what are the dimensions? Answer by cleomenius(959) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The first step here will be to develop our formula.
2l + 2w = P
Let us take 2x + 2 for length, x for width.
2(2x + 2) + 2(x) = 34
4x + 4 + 2x = 34
6x = 30
x = 5 (this is our width)
length = 12
width = 5
24 + 10 = 34.
