Answer:

50=2(10+w)

Explanation:

We know that perimeter is equal to the sides of a shape

A rectangle has two of the same length and two of the same width

P=2l+2w

We know the perimeter and length so plug that in and solve for w

50=2(10)+2w

50=2(10+w) - That matches answer choice D

30=2w

w=15

=> 2 ( w + 10) = 50

There you have it!
