The length of a rectangle is 51 inches more than the width. The perimeter is 146 inches. Find the length and the width.
w = width
L= length = 51 + w given
perimeter = w + w + l+ l = 2 w + 2(51+w) = 146 solve for w, then l = w+ 51
146 - 102 = 44 44 / 4 = 11
The width is 11 in
The length is (146 - 22) / 2 = 62 in
