12+2x=20
its 12 because a rectangle has parlelle sides that are equal in length, so there are two sides that equal 6.
the widths are 2x because they are the same length, we know these have to add up to 20.
2x=8
x=4
width=4
6+6+4+4=20
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
20
a rectangle has a perimeter of 72m. If the length is 20 m longer than the width find its dimensions?
The length is 20 units and the width is 10 units
Length: 4; Width: 5 or Length: 5; Width: 4

length + width = 20/2 = 10 length = 7cm, width = 3cm

20 cm
30 ft
Perimeter = 20+8+20+8 = 56 cm.....
The width of the rectangle is 4 cm
The perimeter of a rectangle = 2 x (length + width) = 2 x (12 + 8) = 2 x 20 = 40 inches
