The length of a rectangle is 8 in. more than its width. the perimeter of the
rectangle is 24 in. what are the width and length of the rectangle?
a
2 in.; 8 in.
ob 2 in.
c 2 in.; 10 in.

the answer is c
cause let w=the width
then w+8=the length

p=2l+2w
24=2(w+8)+2w
2=w

the width of the rectangle is 2in. so the length of the rectangle is 10 in.
