Question

The length of a rectangle is 5 more than 4 times its width. The perimeter is
90 meters. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answer 1

Answer:

So the width is 8 and the length is 37 :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the width "x." The length is then 5 + 4x

The perimeter, which is 90, is calculated by 2(length + width)

In our case, 90 = 2(x + 5 + 4x)

90 = 2(5x + 5)

90 = 10x + 10

80 = 10x

x = 8
