Help with this math problem...?

The perimeter of a rectangle garden is 42 ft. The length of the garden is 5 ft more than twice the width. Which system of equations will determine the length & the width of the garden?


I m not really sure how to do this so if someone could explain that would be great! Thanks so much for the help!

ω: width of the garden

ℓ: length of the garden


The perimeter of a rectangle garden is 42 ft.

2.(ω + ℓ) = 42

ω + ℓ = 21 → the length is 5 ft more than twice the width: ℓ = 2ω + 5

ω + 2ω + 5 = 21

3ω = 16

→ ω = 16/3 ft


Recall: ℓ = 2ω + 5

ℓ = 2.(16/3) + 5

ℓ = (32/3) + (15/3)

ℓ = (32 + 15)/3

→ ℓ = 47/3 ft

l+w=21
l=5+2w
