If the perimeter of a rectangle is 54 yards and the length is 3 yards longer than the width, then what is the width?

Respuesta :

Answer:

width = 12 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

width: x

length: x + 3

perimeter: 54

x + x + (x + 3) + (x + 3) = 54

4x + 6 = 54

subtract 6 from both sides

4x = 48

x = 12

width: 12

length: 12 + 3 = 15
