The length of a rectangle is 7 more than 5 times the width. If the perimeter is 218, find the length and the width.​

Width = 17

Length = 92

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (length + width)

let us take width be x

length = 7 + 5x

width = x

so let us put these value

2 (length + width) = 218

2 (7 + 5x + x ) = 218

2 (7 + 6x ) = 218

14 + 12x = 218

12x = 218 -14

12x = 204

x = 204/12

x = 17

Width = x

         = 17

Length = 7 + 5x

            = 7 + 5(17)

            = 7 + 85

            = 92

no he doesnt because "-16' is negatiive
