Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a - 7 = 3(b + 2)
a - 7 = 3b + 2*3
a - 7 = 3b + 6 {Subtract 6 from both sides}
a - 7 - 6 = 3b
a - 13 = 3b {Divide both sides by 3}

Answer:
the answer is 65.85
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Length = L
then
W=width = 2*L-18
Perimeter = 2(W+L)=2(2L-18+L)=36
divide by 2
3L-18=36/2=18
3L=18+18=36
L=36/3=12 => W=2*L-18=2*12-18=6
=>
Length = 12, Width=6
Check: 2(12+6)=2(18)=36 =perimeter ! checks!
