The question gives of the total perimeter which is 24cm. That means if you added up all the sides of the rectangle you would get 24cm. The tricky part of this question is that it requires you to set up an algebraic equation in order to solve it. They tell us the length is "y" and they want to know the width. You'll have to lengths of "y" so 2y Perimeter = 2 (length + width) 24cm = 2 ( y + width) Divide by 2 on both sides.... 12cm = y + width, now side we want to solve for width we want width to equal something so... subtract y to the left to get... width = y-12cm The width is the perimeter of a rectangle is 24cm if the length is "y" is y-12cm read less
