Answer:

2w + 20 = 55

Explanation:

Here is the full question

The perimeter of a rectangle with a length of 10 units is 55 units. Which equation can be used to find the width, w, of the rectangle?

w + 10 = 55

w + 20 = 55

2w + 10 = 55

2w + 20 = 55

The perimeter of a rectangle's formula is = 2 ( length + breadth)

from the question ,

perimeter is 55 and length is 10

2(10 + w) = 55

20 + 2w = 55
