The length of a rectangle is 4 more than the width. If the perimeter is 36 inches, what’s the width and length of the rectangle?

The width and the length of the rectangle is...

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are looking at the total Perimeter of the rectangle, which is 36 inches, then we have to take in the information of the '4 more than the width'. so we need to think of the numbers that would make sense in this scenario. the formula to solve this would be:

w + (l + 4 ) x 2 = 36

So we would need to look at the different scenarios that don't go over 18.

if the width = 7

and the length = 11

7 + 11 = 18

18 x 2 = 36.

X=11 because

5x+9x+26=180

14x+26=180

14x=154

x=11
