Question

The length of a rectangle is one more than twice its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 134

Answer 1

Answer: We can set up the formula: 2L +2W = 110. We can also set up length as 2x+1 and width as x so plug this in: 2 (2x+1)+2x=110. Expanded to: 4x+2+2x=110. Rewritten as: 6x=108.
