Question 780969: The length of a rectangle is 6 m more than the width. The perimeter of the rectangle
is 20 m. Find the length and width. Answer by 4sak3nl0ve(1) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x+x+6=20
2x+6=20
Subtract 6
2x=20-6
2x= 14
Divide 2 by 14
x= 14/2
x= 7 m
width= 7
So substitute x to 7
7+6= 13
Length is 13
