Answer:

———————

6.75 feet |

———————

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be x. If the width is x, the the length has to be 3x because in the question it says that the length is 3 times the width.

Since this is a rectangle, the opposite side has the same measure, like in the attachment below.

To find the perimeter, you would add up all the sides.

3x+3x+x+x

=6x+2x

=8x

It is also given in the question that he uses 18 feet. Which means that the perimeter is 18 feet. But you figured out that 8x is ALSO the perimeter. This means that you can say: 8x=18.

Solve for x, 18/8=9/4=2.25.

You want the length, which is 3x. So 3(2.25) is your answer.

3(2.25) = 6.75

Vocabulary How can you tell when an equation in one variable has infinitely many solutions or no solution? When you solve for th
mart [117]

Answer: Choice C) When you solve for the variable, you will end up with a false statement, like 0 = 2, for an equation with no solution. You will end up with a true statement, like 2 = 2 for an equation with infinitely many solutions.

For example, let's say we had the equation x = x+2. Subtracting x from both sides leads to 0 = 2 which is a false statement. No matter what we replace x with, the equation x = x+2 is always false. That's why we don't have any solutions here.

For an equation like x + 2 = x + 2, subtracting x from both sides leads to 2 = 2 which is always true. A true equation is one where the same number is on both sides. No matter what we replace x with, the equation will be true. Therefore, there are infinitely many solutions.
