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!

scoray [572]
There are two triangles: a small one to the left and a big one, which includes the small one. They both have a common angle (the leftmost angle) and since (we can assume) the two columns meet the floor at right angles, they both have two equal angles. This means they are similar (AAA).

Let the distance of the base of the stairs to the tallest column be d.

Because matching sides of similar triangles are in the same ratio,
4 / 6 = d / (6 + 12)
4 / 6 = d / 18
(4 * 18) / 6 = d
d = 12

The answer is C
