What is the length of the shortest side if the perimeter of the rectangle is 56 inches?

Length of Shortest Side = 12 inches

Step-by-step explanation: Length of Shortest Side = L = 3x

Length of Longest Side = W = 5x-4

Condition:

2L+2W = Perimeter

2(3x)+2(5x-4) = 56

6x+10x-8 = 56

16x-8 = 56

Adding 8 to both sides

16x = 56+8

16x = 64

Dividing both sides by 14

=> x = 4

Now,

Length of the Shortest Side = L = 3(4) = 12 inches

Length of the Longest Side = W = 5(4)-4 = 16 inches
