the perimeter of a picture frame is 32 inches. The difference between the length of the frame and three times its width is 4. Write a system of equations to represent this situation where L represents the length in inches and W represents the width in inches. What is the width of the frame? What is the length of the frame?

Respuesta :

Answer:

L = 11 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Length: L

Width: W

2(L+W) = 32 (1)

3W-L = 4 (2)

L = 3W-4 (2)

L+W = 16 (1)

3W-4+W = 16

4W = 20

W = 5

L = 3(5)-4

L = 11
