Question

The Width of a rectangle is 3cm less than the length .The perimeter of the rectangle is 26 . A.if the length of the rectangle is a cm long , write an expression for the width of the rectangle​

Answer 1

Answer:

L=8 & w=5

Step-by-step explanation:

L-3=w

perimeter=2(length+width)

26=2(L+L-3)

26=2(2L-3)

13=2L-3

16=2L

L=8 so w=8-3

w=5
