the perimeter of a rectangle is 202 inches. the length exceeds the width by 91 inches. find the length and width
Answered by Reiny
width - x
length - x+91

Isn't 2x + 2(x+91) = 202 ?

Just solve this simple equation.

2x + 2(x+91) = 202

Please let us know if you can't solve it -- and we'll go back to square one.
