The length of a rectangle is 3 ft longer than its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 42 ft, find its area.

A = 108 feet²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width is b.

Length = 3+b

Perimeter of the rectangle, P = 42 ft

Perimeter = 2(l+b)

42 = 2 (3+b+b)

21 = (3+2b)

21-3 = 2b

18 = 2b

b = 9 feet

Length, l = 3+9 = 12 feet

Area of the rectangle,

A = lb

So,

A = 12 × 9

A = 108 feet²

So, the area of the rectangle is 108 feet².
