The perimeter of a rectangle is twice the sum of its length and its width. The perimeter is 22 meters and its length is 2 meters more than twice its width. 0

Answer:
Length = 6.5 meters
Width = 4.5 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Perimeter of a rectangle is twice the sum of it's length and width.
Length is 2 meters more than twice its width, let the length be x meters so the width becomes (x-2) meters
perimeter of the rectangle,
2{x+(x-2)} meters which is 22 meters (given)
so,
2{x+(x-2)}=22
or, 2(x+x-2)=22
or, 2(2x-2)=22
or, 2x-2=11
or, 2x=13
or, x=6.5
so the length is 6.5 meters and the width is 6.5-2 = 4.5 meters.
