Answer:
The dimensions are 16 meters by 18 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
P = 2(l+w)
is the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle.
We know the length is 2 more than the width ( consecutive even integers)
l = w+2
P = 2 (w+2+w)
P = 2(2w+2)
68 = 2 (2w+2)
Divide each side by 2
34 = 2w+2
Subtract 2
34-2 = 2w+2-2
32 = 2w
Divide by 2
32/2 = 2w/2
16 =w
l = w+2
l =16+2
l = 18
The dimensions are 16 meters by 18 meters
