Since length is 3 less than 1/3 width, set up equation l=(1/3)w-3. Because P=2(l+w), substitute l with the euation and get P=2(4/3w-3)

Let

y----------> the length side of the rectangle

x-----------> the width side of the rectangle

we know that

the perimeter of the rectangle is equal to

P=2x+2y --------> equation 1

y=\frac{x}{3}-3 --------> equation 2

substitute equation 2 in equation 1

P=2x+2[\frac{x}{3}-3]\\ \\P=2x+ \frac{2x}{3}-6 \\ \\P=(\frac{8x}{3}-6)\ units

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

P=(\frac{8x}{3}-6)\ units

Answer:

'16' is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, 6=x+2  divided by 3. In this case, we can multiply 6 and 3 which makes

18 = x+2. We substract 2 from 18 and the answer is 16. If you don't understand anything, you can  ask by  leaving a comment below. Thanks.

16+2 = 18/3 = 6
