The length of a rectangle is 3 feet longer than the width. The perimeter is 18 feet. Find the dimensions of the rectangle?

Answer :

Answer:

Width = 3

Length = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

width = x

length = x + 3

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

[tex]p = 2(x + (x + 3)) \\ 18 = 2(x + x + 3) \\ 18 = 2(2x + 3) \\ 18 = 4x + 6 \\ 18 - 6 = 4x \\ 12 = 4x \\ \frac{12}{4} = x \\ 3 = x[/tex]
