Answer:

16 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be x

The length will be 3 x since the length is three times the width

Perimeter=2(l+w) where l is length and w is width

By substituting 128 cm for perimeter, x for w and 3 x for l then

128=2(3x+x)

128=8x

x=\frac {128}{8}=16

Therefore, the width is 16 cm, the width is 16*3=48 cm

Use substitution and substitute y into the other equation. One of the equations already gives you y in terms of x, so use that and substitute it into the other equation. y = 3x - 4

Plug into the other equation: -3y = -9x + 12 
-3(3x-4) = -9x + 12
-9x + 12 = -9x + 12
This is an identity. So that means that any value of x makes this equation true. So B.
