the perimeter of a rectangle is 600. The lenght of the rectangle is 2 more than 3 times the width.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Let w = width of rectangle
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "3w+2 = length of rectangle
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "perimeter = 2(width+length)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "600 = 2(w + 3w+2)
\n" ); document.write( "300 = w + 3w+2
\n" ); document.write( "300 = 4w+2
\n" ); document.write( "298 = 4w
\n" ); document.write( "74.5 = w (width)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "length:
\n" ); document.write( "3w+2 = 3(74.5)+2 = 223.5+2 = 225.5 (length)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
