Answer:

length = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

length =x-4

width = 8

perimeter =2( x-4) + 2× 8 = 34

= 2x - 8 + 8 =34

= 2x =34

= x = 17

Answer:

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite sides of a rectangle are equal, then

2(x - 4) + 2(8) = 34 ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side

2x - 8 + 16 = 34

2x + 8 = 34 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

2x = 26 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 13
