A rectangle is 3 times as long as it is wide. The perimeter is 24 feet. Find the dimensions.

Width is 3 units, The Length is 9 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Three times as much as 3, or 9, is how you find the lengths. This being- 3+3=6 and 9+9=18, 6+18=24, which is the perimeter, therefore 3 and 9 are the dimensions.

for finding the midpoint of any given 2 pair of points simply add the respective x coordinates with other x coordinate and the y coordinate with other y coordinate and divide them by 2

in your question it will be :

(3+1)/2 for the x coordinate of mid point i.e 2

[8+(-4)]/2 for the y coordinate of midpoint i.e 2

so coordinates of mid point of points (3,8) and (1,-4) will be (2,2)
