Answer:
The Width of the rectangle = 10 inches
The Length of the rectangle = 51 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
let the width of the rectangle = k inches
So, the length of the rectangle = (k+41) inches
Perimeter = 122 inches
Also, PERIMETER OF THE RECTANGLE = 2(LENGTH + WIDTH)
⇒2( k + (k+41)) = 122
or, 4k + 82 = 122
⇒ 4k = 122 - 82 = 40
or, k = 40/4 = 10
⇒ k= 10 inches
Hence, the width of the rectangle is 10 inches
Length of the rectangle = 10+ 41 = 51 inches
