Question 149103
We have to start with formula of finding the Perimeter of Rectangle:
{{{P=2(L+W)}}} -----------> eqn 1
.
Next, label the given:
W= unknown
L= W+14, right? (14 more)
P= 264 meters
Substituting in eqn 1,
264= 2(W+14+W)
264= 2(2W+14)=4W+28
{{{W=(264-28)/4}}}
{{{W=59.meters}}}
For L = 59+14
{{{L=73.meters}}}
In doubt? Go back eqn 1,
{{{264=2(73+59)}}}
{{{264=2(132)}}}
{{{264=264}}}
Thank you,
