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.

monitta
The answer to, Is the Triangle with side lengths of 10 in., 24 in., and 26 in, a right triangle is: Yes.  For right triangles, the sum of the squares of the shorter sides is equal to the square of the longer side.  Thus, this is a right triangle if 10^2+24^2=26^2.  Expanding these squares, we have 100+576=676, which is true.  Thus, the triangle is right.
