A rectangular solar panel has a length that is 11 inches shorter than 3 times its width. If the perimeter is 178 inches, what are the dimensions of the panel? Answer by addingup(3677) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! L = 4W+3
2L+2W = 56 Substitute for L:
2(4W+3)+2W = 56 Distribute the 2 over the terms in the parenthesis
8W+6+2W = 56
10W = 50
Divide both sides by 10:
10W/10 = 50/10
W = 5
L = 4(5)+3 = 23
-----------------------------
Check:
2L+2W = 56
2(23)+2(5) = 56
46+10 = 56 I'm giving you the correct answer.
