The length of a rectangle is 4 cm more than the width and the perimeter is at least 48 cm.

What are the smallest possible dimensions for the rectangle?

length = 14cm; width = 10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

let the width be ' x '.

let the length be ' 4 + x '

perimeter = 48 cm

perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (l + b)

2 (l + b) = 48

2 (4 + x + x) = 48

2 (4 + 2x) = 48

(2*4) + (2*2x) = 48

8 + 4x = 48

4x = 48 - 8 = 40

x = 40/4 = 10

width will be 10 cm and length will be 14 cm
