Part A:

Let the width of the rectangle be = x inches

As given, the length of a rectangle is 3 more inches than the width so let the length of the rectangle be = x+3 inches

Perimeter is given as = 54 inches

Perimeter = 2(l+b)

Equation becomes:

2(x+3+x)=54

2(2x+3)=54

Part B:

Solving the equation we get

4x+6=54

4x=54-6

4x=48

x=12

Hence, the width of the rectangle is 12 inches

Length = x+3 = 12+3 = 15 inches

Hence, length of the rectangle is 15 inches.
