Suppose that the width of a certain rectangle is 1 inch more than one-fourth of its length. The perimeter of the rectangle is 32 inches. Find the length and width of the rectangle.
Answered by Steve
If the length is x, the width is 1 + x/4

So, 2(x + 1 + x/4) = 32
Now just solve for x and get the width.
