Answer: 6
Step by step:
W is width, l is length, p is perimeter
The perimeter of a rectangle is 2w+2l.
l=3w+9
2l=6w+18
2l+2w=8w+18
P=8w+18
66=8w+18
48=8w
W=6
Hope this helps.

Triangle ABC and Triangle DEF are similar. For triangle ABC, AB = 2x , AC = 24 inches and BC = 20. For triangle DEF, EF = 5 and
Norma-Jean [14]
X=8.

Following the similarity statement, we know that AC is to DF as BC is to EF.  The ratio would be:

24/(x-2) = 20/5

Cross multiply:
24*5 = 20(x-2)

Use the distributive property:
120 = 20x - 40

Add 40 to both sides:
120+40 = 20x - 40 + 40
160 = 20x

Divide both sides by 20:
160/20 = 20x/20
8 = x

Eliminate parentheses using the distributive property.
  4806x -3204 +2 = 1360 -544x +90x
  5260x = 4562
  x = 4562/5260
  x = 2281/2630
