The length of a rectangle is 2 more than 3 times the width. if the perimeter is 100 meters, what is the width of the rectangle?

So lets say the width of the rectangle is "x". This would make the length "3x+2".

The perimeter formula of a rectangle is P=2Length + 2width, so applying that to the problem:

100=2(x) + 2(3x+2)

Solving for x would give you x=12.

Since x is the width, the answer would be 12.

I hope this helps!
