Question

The length of a rectangle is 6 feet more than three times the width of the

Answer 1

Answer:

width = 6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

let l be the length of the rectangle

let w be the width of the rectangle

The statement

The length of a rectangle is 6 feet more than three times the width of the

rectangle is written as

l = 6 + 3w

From the question

l = 24 feet

Substitute the value into the above formula and solve for the width

That's

24 = 6 + 3w

3w = 24 - 6

3w = 18

Divide both sides by 3

w = 6

Therefore

width = 6 feet
