l=24in.+wwe know that the perimeter of a rectangle is given by formulaP=2(l+w)

l=24in.+wwe know that the perimeter of a rectangle is given by formulaP=2(l+w)180=2(l+w)

plugg in the value of l in the second equation.


180 = 2(24 + w) + 2w \\ 180 = 48 + 2w + 2w \\ 180 - 48 = 4w \\ 132 = 4w \\ (4w)/(4) = (132)/(4) \\ w = 33


l = 24 + 33 \\ l = 57
