Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w
where
l is the length of the rectangle
w is the width
From the question
length of a rectangular picture is 5 inches more than three times the width is written as
l = 5 + 3w
Now substitute this into the above equation
Perimeter = 74 inches
74 = 2(5 + 3w) + 2w
74 = 10 + 6w + 2w
8w = 74 - 10
8w = 64
Divide both sides by 8
w = 8 inches
Substitute w = 8 into l = 5 + 3w
That's
l = 5 + 3(8)
l = 5 + 24
l = 29 inches
