Answer:
30.25
Step-by-step explanation:
All angles of a line must add up to 180. Since we already know that one angle is 90 degrees, we know that the other angles should add up to 90 degrees in order for all of the angles to add up to 180 degrees:
(3x-7)+(x+8)=90
4x+1=90
4x=89
x=22.25
22.25+8= 30.25
Let's call the width: w
the lenght is then 3w+4 ("4 more than 3 times the width")
and the parameter would be 2(w+3w+4), that is 2*(4w+4), that is 8w+8.
this is also equal to 18.4:
8w+8=18.4
8w=10.4
w=1.3
this is the width, and the lenght is:
4+3*1,3=4+3.9=7.9
and the area is their product:
1.3*7.9=10.27
