THE CORRECT ANSWER IS A=12 OVER X
If the width is 2p then the width of both sides is 4p. Subtract that from the total perimeter and you get 16p-4p= 12p. Divide that by two because there are 2 side lengths. So, one side length is 6p.
First divide both sides by 12 so u get 5x -4.5 = 3. Now add 4.5 to both sides and u get 5x = 7.5. Now divide 7.5 by 5 and u get 1.5
