Question 260964: The difference etween the length and width of a rectangle is 7 centimeters. Find the dimensions of the rectangle if its perimeter is 50 centimeters. Answer by Greenfinch(383) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Call width W, then length is W + 7
Perimeter is 2(W + W + 7) = 50
2W + 7 = 25
2W = 18
W = 9, length is 16 cm
