Let l represent length, and w represent width
l=3w-5

P=2(l+w)
46=2(l+w)
Divided 2 for both side
l+w=23
Now, I substitute l=3w-5 into this equation
3w-5+w=23
4w-5=23
Add 5 for both side
4w=28
Divided 4 for both side
w=7 inches
l=3w-5
l=3(7)-5
l=21-5
l=16 inches. As a result, the length is 16 inches, and the width is 7 inches. Hope it help!

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

7 is the value of x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Now we have to,

find the required value of x.

I need help solving this proportion!! <br><br> 3/x-1 = 2/x+4
Gelneren [198K]
1. Move 2/x to the left side of proportion by changing sign before it:
3/x - 1 - 2/x = 4

2. Move 1 to the right side of proportion and change it's sign as well:
3/x - 2/x = 4 + 1

3. Sum numerators in the left side of proportion since they have common denominator (x) abd also sum the numbers in the right side too:
(3-2)/x = 5

4. Calculate numerator in the left side of proportion:
1/x = 5

5. Move 1 to the right side of proportion by dividing that side by it:
x = 1/5
