Problema Solution
The perimeter of a rectangular window is 34 feet. The width of the window is 3 feet more than the length. What are the dimensions of the window?
Answer provided by our tutors
let 'w' represent the width of the window, then 'w-3' represents its length
perimeter = 2 (length + width)
34 = 2(w + w-3)
solving for 'w' we have w=10
10-3 = 7
the width of the window is 10 feet, its length is 7 feet
