Answer:

Width of the rectangle = 7 meters

Length of the rectangle = 12 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + width)

Perimeter of the rectangle = 38 meters

Width of the rectangle = w

Length of the rectangle = w + 5

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + width)

38 = 2{(w + 5) + w}

38 = 2(w + 5 + w)

38 = 2(2w + 5)

38 = 4w + 10

38 - 10 = 4w

28 = 4w

w = 28/4

w = 7 meters

Width of the rectangle = w

= 7 meters

Length of the rectangle = w + 5

= 7 + 5

= 12 meters
