Perimeter = 2L + 2w
in this case, L = 3w - 2 and perimeter = 28.
so, 28 = 2L + 2w.  or 14 = L + w.  or substitute for L: (3w - 2) +w =14 
or 4w - 2 = 14.  4w = 12. 12/4 = 3 = w.
The width = 3 inches; and the length = (3x3 -2) 7 inches.

The length of the longer leg of a right triangle is 19ft more than five times the length of the shorter leg. the length of the h
dangina [55]
Let x represent the length of the shorter leg.

Longer leg: 5x +19
Hypotenuse: 5x +20

Pythagorean theorem:
.. x^2 +(5x +19)^2 = (5x +20)^2
.. x^2 +25x^2 +190x +19^2 = 25x^2 +200x +20^2 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
.. x^2 -10x -39 = 0
.. (x -13)(x +3) = 0
.. x = 13 . . . . . . . . . . leg lengths must be positive

The side length of the triangle are 13, 84, 85 feet.
