the length of a rectangle is 12 cm more than the width. the perimeter is 74 cm. find the length and the width

Respuesta :

Answer:

Width = 12.5 cm

Length = 24.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Width: x

Length: x + 12

2x + 2 (x+12) = 2x + 2x + 24 = 74

4x + 24 = 74

4x = 74 - 24

x = 50/4

x = 12.5
