Take the length as 'x'

Width = 2x - 2

Perimeter = 44 [ Formula = 2(l + w) ]

2 (l + w) = 44

2 (x + 2x - 2) = 44

2 (3x - 2) = 44

6x - 4 = 44

6x = 44 + 4

6x = 48

x = 48/6

<u>x </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>8</u> => length

Width = 2x - 2 = 2(8) - 2 = <u>1</u><u>4</u><u> </u><u>units.</u>

Hope it helps!

What do the slope and y-intercept of a real-world linear function represent?
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Word problems with linear equations (that is, with straight-line models) almost always work this way: the slope is the rate of change, and the y-intercept is the starting value.
