Let x be the width
2x + 2(3x) = 24
2x + 6x = 24
8x = 24
x=3
So the width is 3 feet, and the length is 3x3=9 feet

x=width length is 4 ft longer than 3 cases w length = 3x+4 2L+2W=P 2L+2W=32 2(3x+4)+2(x)=32 6x+8+2x=32 10x+8=32 10x=32-8 10x=24 x=24/10 Width=x=2.4 length=3x+4= 3(2.4)+4=7.2+4=11.2 LW=area (11.2)(2.4)=area 26.88=area

Let W be the width
Let L = 3W be the length
The perimeter is 2W + 2L:
2W + 2(3W) = 24
2W + 6W = 24
8W = 24
W = 3
L = 3W = 3(3) = 9
So the width is 3 ft. and the length is 9 ft.
