  1. 2l+2w = perimeter

    2l + 30 > 94

    2l > 64

    l > 32


  2. Any length >32. lol :D hope I'm right...

    You know that 15+15=30 for the combined widths, and 94-30=64, and divide that by 2 to get your 2 lengths. So it has to be greater than those for the perimeter to be greater than 94. That's my reasoning.

  3. greater then 32 cm

  4. length > (94/2 -- 15) cm = 32 cm will make perimeter greater than 94 cm

  5. perimeter= 2*length+ 2* width =2*length+30

    P=2L+30

    P>94

    2L+30>94

    2L>64

    L>32
