Answer:

Width = 6 m and lenght = 7 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the width of the rectangle.

lenght = 2x - 5

Perimeter means the addition of all sides of the rectangle.

Thus, x + x + 2x - 5 + 2x - 5 = 26

2x + 2x + 2x = 26 + 10

6x = 36, x= 6

Therefore, width is 6 m and lenght is 2 (6) -5 == 7 m
