Length(l)= 2w
width(w)= w

Perimeter(P)= 2w+2l= 72 (simplify expression: divide each side by 2 )
P= w+l= 36 (plug in "2w" for "l")
P= w+(2w)= 36
P= 3w= 36 (divide each side by 3 to find the width)
w= 12 units

find length:
l=2w
l= 2(12)
l= 24 units

Answer:
The length of this rectangle is 24 units and the width is 12 units.

The product of 3 consecutive odd numbers is 2,145. Enter a simplified expression for finding the numbers. Let n be the first odd
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

11, 13 and 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the odd number is "x". If x is for example 15, then the next ODD number would be 15+2=17 and the one after that would be 15+2+2=15+4=19.

Applying that here, we get:

Odd number* the next odd number*the next odd number=2145

x*(x+2)*(x+4)=2145

x*(x^2+4x+2x+8)=2145

x^3+6x^2+8x=2145

By solving the polynomial, you get x=11.

Which makes our three numbers: 11, 13 and 15.

11*13*15=2145. The answer checks.
