Answer:
Length=4.5 inch
Width= 5.25 inch
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width of the paper be 'W' and
Length of the paper be 'L'
Perimeter= 19.5 inches
According to the statement given:
[tex]Length=2*Width-6\\\\L=2W-6[/tex]
Perimeter of a rectangle :
[tex]2(Length + Width)\\\\ 19.5 = 2(L+W)\\\\ 19.5 =2(2W-6+W)[/tex]
[tex]19.5=2(3W-6)\\\\19.5=6W-12[/tex]
Adding '12' both side:
[tex]19.5+12=6W\\\\31.5=6W\\\\W=31.5/6\\\\W=5.25 inches[/tex]
[tex]Length=2W-6=2(5.25)-6=10.5-6= 4.5 inch[/tex]
[tex]Length=4.5 inch\\Width= 5.25 inch[/tex]
