Answer: Width = 5 inches
Concept:
Here, we need to know the idea of the perimeter.
A perimeter is a path that encompasses/surrounds/outlines a shape.
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (w + l)
w = width
l = length
If you are still confused, please refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation.
Solve:
w = w
l = 3w - 2
P = 36 inches
<u>Given formula</u>
P = 2 (w + l)
<u>Substitute the value into the formula</u>
36 = 2 (w + 3w - 2)
<u>Simplify values in the parentheses</u>
36 = 2 (4w -2)
<u>Divide 2 on both sides</u>
36 / 2 = 2 (4w - 2) / 2
18 = 4w - 2
<u>Add 2 on both sides</u>
18 + 2 = 4w - 2 + 2
20 = 4w
<u>Divide 4 on both sides</u>
20 / 4 = 4w / 4
w = 5
Hope this helps!! :)
