Answer:
The length and width of the rectangle are 10.5 in and 6.5 in respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
P = 2L + 2W
P (perimeter of the rectangle) = 34 in
L (length of the rectangle) = 4 in + W (width of the rectangle)
Therefore, L = 4 + W
P = 2L + 2W
34 = 2(4 + W) + 2W
34 = 8 + 2W + 2W
34 - 8 = 4W
26 = 4W
W = 26/4 = 6.5 in
L = 4 + W = 4 + 6.5 = 10.5 in
L = 10.5 in
W = 6.5 in
