The perimeter of a rectangle is 64 feet. The length of the rectangle is 3 times the width of the rectangle. If w represents the width of the rectangle, the equation that represents the perimeter is 2 (3 w) 2 w = 64. Which shows the first step that should be taken to verify that the width of the rectangle is 8

Answer:

8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  • Perimeter = 64 ft = 2 ( L + w )
  • Length(L) = 3(w)

Solution

Perimeter (P) = 2(l + w)

64 ft = 2(3w + w)

64 ft = 2(4w)

8w = 64 ft

w = 64 ft / 8

width = 8 ft

Therefore, the value of the width simplifies to:

  • Width = 8 ft
