Question 1033434: The length of a rectangle is 6 inches more than the width. If the perimeter is 176 inches, what are the length and the width? Answer by jorel555(1290) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If the perimeter is 176 inches, we know that:
2W+2L=176
If L=W+6, then
2W+2(W+6)=176
4W+12=176
4W=164
W=41
L=47!!!!!!!!!
