The perimeter of a rectangle is 24 in. and its length is 3times its width. what are the length and width of the rectangle?

let w = width and 3w = length

perimeter is the distance around the outside of the object or P = 2L + 2W

2(3w) + 2w = 24

6w + 2w= 24

8w = 24

w= 3

3w= 9

Width is 3in. and length is 9in.

its kind of blurry. can you put a clearer pic?

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

use pothagarean therom

a^2+b^2=c^2 so first ac

acm is a right triangle because c= 90°

and am (the hypotenuse or c) =16+9 =25

but there is not enough info we need another angle or side length
