A rectangle perimeter is 102 inches. The width of the rectangle is 9 inches more than half the length. What are the length and width of the rectangle?

Respuesta :

If the perimeter is 102 inches, the sum of length and width is half that, 51 inches. This sum is
  51 = L + (1/2L +9)
  42 = 3/2L
  28 = L
  W = L/2 +9 = 23

The length and width of the rectangle are 28 inches and 23 inches, respectively.
