Question

A rectangle has a length four more than

five times the width. If the perimeter is
32 units, find the width and length.

Answer 1

L ≥ 5w + 4
2(L+w) ≥ 32

L+w ≥ 16

6w + 4 ≥ 16
6w ≥ 12
w ≥ 2

L ≥ 5w + 4
L ≥ 14

If L = 14 and w = 2 then the perimeter is 32.
These are the smallest dimensions that fit the criteria.

Note: If we raise the width by 1 to w = 3
then the length is at least 19. At 19 by 3 we have P = 44
Like would be appreciated!!
