Arectangle is 8m longer than it is wide. its perimeter is 56m. find its length and width. write values only.

The length is and the width is

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the length of the rectangle

y -----> the width of the rectangle

we know that

The perimeter of rectangle is equal to

so

------> equation A

-----> equation B

Substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

Find the value of x

therefore

The length is and the width is

1/4 and 8/3 because:

the reciprocal if 4 is 1/4 because 4 is used as 4/1 and the opposite of that is 1/4. the opposite of 3/8 is 8/3 so that is the answer.

50x5=$250
