Answer:

Lenght = 13, Width = 4

Explanation:

Perimeter:

2(L + W) = 34

=> 2L + 2W = 34

Area:

L * W = 52

L = 2W + 5

L - 2W = 5

----------------------------

How to find the Length:

Now Add:

2L + 2W = 34

+ L - 2W = 5

-------------------------

3L = 39

L = 13

How to find the Width:

L * W = 52

13 * W = 52

W = 4

======================

Length = 13

Width = 4
