Given

height of photo = h

Width = 6+3h

Perimeter = 284

Find

Height of the photo

Step-by-step explanation

As we see the photo is in the shape of rectangle ,

and we know that perimeter of rectangle = 2( L + B)

so , according to the question


\begin{gathered} 284=2*(h+3h+^6) \\ 142=4h+6 \\ 142-6=4h \\ 136=4h \\ 34=h \end{gathered}

width = 3h + 6 = 3*34 + 6 = 108

Final Answer

Therefore , the height of the photo is 34 in. and width is 108 in.
