Answer 1

Answer:
The length is 9 inches and the width is 3 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The dimensions can be found by creating a variable "x" for the sides of the rectangle, where x is the width, and because the length is three times the width, length is equal to 3x
We then set up an equation for the perimeter

l
+

w

and plug in our x values for length and width.
