Question 464837: The length of a rectangle is 4 cm more than twice its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 32 cm, find the length of the rectangle. Answer by sofiyac(983) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! so width is x
then length is 2x+4
2x+4x+8=32
6x+8=32
6x=24
x=4
so width is 4, then length is 2*4+4=12
