Given:

The perimeter of a rectangular building is 1200 feet.

The width of the building is 2 feet less than three times the length.

To find:

Width of the building.

Solution:

Let length of the building be x.

Then, width = 3x-2

We know that,

Perimeter=2(length +width)

1200=2(x+3x-2)

1200=2(4x-2)

1200=8x-4

Add 4 on both sides

1204=8x

Divide both sides by 8.

\dfrac{1204}{8}=x

150.5=x

Now,

Width=3x-2

Width=3(150.5)-2

Width=451.5-2

Width=449.5

Therefore, the  width of the building is 449.5 feet.

The sum of four consecutive intergers is 8 What are the intergers
Semmy [17]
Consecutive integers are 1 apart
so the 4 are
x, x+1,x+2,x+3

they add to 8

x+x+1+x+2+x+3=8
4x+6=8
minus 6 both sides
4x=2
divide both sides by 4
x=1/2
false, 1/2 is not an integer

if it was adding to 18, then the integers would be 3,4,5,6
but we can't find consecutive integers that add to 8
