The length is equal to 25.
The width is equal to 15.
l = 2w - 5
2l + 2w = 80
We have a value for l, so we can plug it into the second equation to solve for w.
2(2w - 5) + 2w = 80
Distributive property.
4w - 10 + 2w = 80
Combine like terms.
6w - 10 = 80
Add 10 to both sides.
6w = 90
Divide both sides by 6.
w = 15
Now that we have a value for w, we can plug it into the original equation to solve for l.
l = 2(15) - 5
l = 30 - 5
l = 25
