Step-by-step explanation:
The width of a rectangle is 3 less than its length. What is the width of a rectangle if its perimeter is 26 feet?
In a rectangle the perimeter (P) is 2L + 2W. Divide both sides by 2 and you get p/2 = L + W
W = L - 3. Substitute this for W into the equation above, and substitute 13 in for P/2.
13 = L + L - 3 Simplify
13 = 2L - 3 Add 3 to both sides
16 = 2L Divide both sides by 2
8 feet = L. If L = 8 feet, then W = 8 - 3, W = 5 feet
Check: 8 + 5 + 8 + 5 = 26 feet
