If the width is 15, and the scale factor from width to length is 3:2, then you will have to divide 15 by 3 to get your original width.
15/3 = 5.
5 is your original width.
Usually you are given more information about the rectangle such as distance of length in terms of width.
You know that the formula for perimeter is
P=2(l+w)
Substitute p and the other values to find width.
Hope I helped :)
The mean can be found by adding the two numbers and dividing by 2
let the second number be y
(x + y)/2 = 1/2x + 1
solve for y
multiply each side by 2
x + y = 2(1/2x + 1)
distribute
x + y = x + 2
subtract x on both sides
y = 2
