Define x and y:
------------------------------------------------
Length = x
Width = y
------------------------------------------------
Construct the two equations:
------------------------------------------------
The perimeter is 110:
2x + 2y = 110
The Length is 25m longer than the width:
x = y + 25
------------------------------------------------
Solve x and y:
------------------------------------------------
2x + 2y = 110 ---------------- (1)
x = y + 25 ---------------------(2)
Substitute (2) into (1):
2x + 2y = 110
2( y + 25) + 2y = 110
2y + 50 + 2y = 110
4y + 50 = 110
4y = 110 - 50
4y - 60
y = 15m
------------------------------------------------
Substitute y=15 into equation 1:
------------------------------------------------
x = y + 25
x = 15 + 25
x = 40m
------------------------------------------------
Find Length and Width:
------------------------------------------------
Length = x = 40m
Width = y = 15m
------------------------------------------------
Answer: Length = 40m , Width = 15m
