Answer:
The length of the rectangle is 9 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The length of rectangle(l) = (x+3) cm and a width of rectangle (w) = cm a
Also, perimeter of rectangle is 24 cm.
Perimeter of rectangle is to add the lengths of all the four sides.
Perimeter of rectangle (P) is given by;
P=2(l+w)
Substituting the value of P = 24 cm , l = (x+3) cm and w =
then,
Divide by 2 both sides of an equation;
Combine like terms;
Subtract 3 from both the sides we get;
Simplify:
Multiply both sides by we get
Therefore, length of rectangle(l) = (x+3) = 6+3 = 9 cm
