The perimeter of a rectangle is 61 feet. the length is 5 more than twice the width. what is the length and width?

Length = 22 feet Width= 8.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter= 61

Let Width= x

Length= 2x+5

Perimeter= 2l + 2w

61= 2(2x+5) + 2x

61 = 2(2x+5+x)

61/2 = 3x+5

30.5 -5 = 3x

25.5 = 3x

25.5/3 =x

x= 8.5

Hence, width = 8.5 feet

Then, the length = 2x+5 = 2(8.5) +5 = 22 feet

Hope this helps!

∠B = 138

Step-by-step explanation:

∠A + ∠B = 180

2x - 24 + 5x - 27 = 180

7x - 51 = 180

    +51      +51

7x = 231

7       7

x = 33

∠B = 5x - 27

∠B = 5(33) - 27

∠B = 138
