Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) "The length of a rectangle is three more than twice the width." This can be written in a math sentence as
L = 2W + 3
where "twice the width" is 2W and "three more" is just adding 3.
2) "Perimeter is 36 inches". Recall the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle
P = 2W + 2L
set the formula to 36 and that gives us our second equation: 36 = 2W + L
then use substitution do solve
