OK so we have two formulas:

Length = width + 5 (since legth is 5 more than width)

length + width + length + width = perimeter= 82 (form. for perm.)

so we can replace every instance of "length" with "width + 5" since they are the same.

width + 5 + width + width + 5 + width = 82

4xwidth + 10 = 82

4X width = 72

width = 23

so now go back and replace "width" with 23.

length = 23 + 5

length = 28

There you go.

How do you find the length of a rectangle if the perimeter is 40 and the width is 2inches?

perimeter = 2 x (length + width) ⇒ length + width = perimeter ÷ 2 ⇒ length = (perimeter ÷ 2) - width So to find the length of the given rectangle, subtract the width from half the perimeter is how to do it. IF you meant "What is the length..." then: length = perimeter ÷ 2 - width = 40 ÷ 2 - 2 in = 20 - 2 in = 18 in
