Answer:

[tex]L=15\ m[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The perimeter of rectangle is equal to

[tex]P=2L+2W[/tex]

In this problem we have

[tex]P=42\ m[/tex]

[tex]W=6\ m[/tex]

substitute in the formula and solve for L

[tex]42=2L+2(6)[/tex]

simplify

[tex]21=L+(6)[/tex]

[tex]L=21-6=15\ m[/tex]
