The perimeter of a rectangle is 162 cm. The length of the rectangle is eleven centimeters more than
four times the size of the width. What is the length and width of the rectangle?​

Respuesta :

let

width = w

length = 4w + 11

2(length) + 2(width) = perimeter

2(4w + 11) + 2(w) = 162

8w + 22 + 2w = 162

10w + 22 = 162

10w = 140

w = 14 cm (WIDTH)

length = 4w + 11

length = 4(14) + 11

length = 56 + 11

LENGTH = 67 cm
