Question

4 Eric sketches a rectangle with a perimeter of

90 inches. The length of the rectangle is three
inches longer than the width. Which equation
can be used to determine x, the width of the
rectangle Eric sketched?
F 2x + 2x + 3 = 90
G 2(x + 3) = 90
H x(x + 3) = 90
J 2(x) + 2(x + 3) = 90

Answer 1

2(x) + 2(x + 3) = 90

Explanation:

Width: x inch.

Length: (x + 3) inch.

P = 2
`w^{}` + 2
`l^{}`

P = 2(x) + 2(x + 3) = 90
