Answer:

16 is the width 32 is the length

Explanation:

L = 2x

96 = 2L + 2x Substitute the first equation into the second equation for L

96 = 2(2x) + 2x Multiply

96 = 4x + 2x Add

96 = 6x Divide both sides by 6

16 = x

Plug this into the first equation to solve for the length

L = 2(16) Multiply

L = 32
