Answer:

L = 15

W = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2L + 2W

2L + 2W = 52                         Divide each term by 2

2L/2 + 2W/2 = 52/2

L + W = 26                              Substitute the value for L

W + 4 + W = 26                      

2W + 4 = 26

2W = 26 - 4                            Subtract 4 from both sides

2W = 22                                  Divide by 2

W = 22 /2

W = 11

L = W + 4

L = 11 + 4

L = 15
