The length of a rectangular billboard is 2 feet more than 3 times it's width. The perimeter of the billboard is 68 feet. Find the Length and Width of the billboard and the area\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let the width be x\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the length will be 3x+2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter is 2L + 2W\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2x+ 2(3x+2)= 68\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2x+6x+4 =68\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "8x=68-4\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "8x= 64\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x=8 which is the width\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3x+2 = length
\n" ); document.write( "3*8+2= 26 which is the length\r
\n" ); document.write( "
