Question 625016: the perimeter of a rectangle is 30ft. The length is 11 ft longer than width. Find the dimensions. Write a system of linear equations and solve the resulting system. Let x be the length and y be the width. Answer by oscargut(2103) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Per = 2(x+y)=30
x = y+11
Then:
2(y+11+y)=30
2y+11=15
2y=4
y=2
x=13
Answer: Width = 2 and Lenght= 13
