The length of a rectangle is 4 less than three times it’s width. The perimeter is 72 feet. Find the dimensions of a rectangle

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so let’s say x is the length.  Then the width will be 3x-4.  You add them together and multiply by two.  The perimeter is 72 so the equation equala 72.

Equation:

(x+3x-4)*2=72

(4x-4)*2=72

8x-8=72

8x=80

x=10

length:10

width:26
