The length of a rectangle is eight more than twice it's width. The perimeter is 88 feet. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Length = 32 feet

Width = 12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of a rectangle is eight more than twice its width.

The perimeter is 88 feet.

Let's say the width (w) is x feet

The length (l) will be 2x + 8

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w

So 2 (2x + 8) + 2x = 88

4x + 16 + 2x = 88

6x + 16 = 88

6x = 88 - 16

6x = 72

x = 12

So the width is 12 feet.

The length is 2 (12) + 8 = 32 feet
