Question

The Room Is 4 Meters Longer Than It Is Wide. Its Perimeter Is 24 Meters.

Find The Width In Meters

Answer 1

What is the formula for the area?

Answer 2

let l=length and w=width
u have l=w+4
The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of the four sides
P=2(length)+2(width)=2(length+width)
24=2*(w+4+w)
24=2*(2w+4)
12=2w+4
12-4=2w
8=2w
w=4

Answer 3

2l+2w= P

Answer 4

w=4

Answer 5

Uh, perimeter is the sum of all the perimeter dimensions, both ends and both top and bottom. see drawing

Answer 6

THANKS EVERYONE I FOUND MY ANSWER : )

Answer 7

or in the case of a rectangle 2W + 2L = perimeter.
