Question 958193
Length = {{{ 7 }}} m
The perimeter is twice the length
plus twice the width
--------------------
Given:
length = {{{ 7 }}} m
perimeter = {{{ 24 }}} m
---------------------
{{{ 24 = 2*L + 2*W }}}
{{{ 24 = 2*7 + 2*W }}}
{{{ 24 = 14 + 2*W }}}
Subtract {{{ 14 }}} from both sides
{{{ 10 = 2*W }}}
Divide both sides by {{{ 2 }}}
{{{ W = 5 }}} m
----------------
The width is 5 meters
