Perimeter=2*Length+2*Width
=2*(Length+Width)
=2*(3+2W+W)
=2*(3+3 W)
=6+6W
Perimeter is=48 Feet , So
48=6+6 W
48-6=6 W
42=6 W
W=7 Feet.

let length = L
width = W
length is 3 more than twice its width
L = 2W + 3
Perimeter = 2L + 2W = 48
2 (2W + 3) + 2W = 48
4W + 6 + 2W = 48
6W = 48 -6
W = 42/6
W = 7 units

let the width be W and the length L
L= 2 W+3
Perimeter is 2L+2W=2L+L-3 = 48
3L=51
L=51/3 = 17 feet
W= 7 feet

Let width = x
length = 2x+3
So, 2(x+2x+3) = 48
or 3x+3 = 24
or x+1 = 8
or x = 7 feet.

L=2w+3
2[w + 2w+3] = 48
2w + 4w + 6 = 48
6w = 42
w = 7

length = 2x + 3, width = x
48 = x + 2x+3 + x + 2x+3
48 = 6x + 6
42 = 6x
x = 7
width = 7 feet
