The length of a rectangle is 3 centimeters more than 3 times the width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 46 centimeters, find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Length = 13 cm

Width = 10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that;

We are required to determine the dimensions of the rectangle;

We know that the perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula;

P = 2(l+w)

In this case;

46 = 2 ( x + x + 3)

Thus;

4x + 6 = 46

Solving for x,

4x = 40

  x = 10

This means, the width is 10 cm, while the length is 13 cm

Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle is length 13 cm and width 10 cm

step-by-step explanation:

from this example, we can see that subtracting with integers is the same as adding the opposite. we can solve using a number line or by using the saying "keep, change, change" to us solve. it is important to remember that we can subtract a negative and end up with a larger number than we started with.
