Answer 3

p = 2w + 2L
L = 3x
w = x

Answer 4

well look at the problem this way



so using the area information and the area in terms of width, you can say

\[192 = 3w^2\]

you need to solve for w as the 1st step

when you find the width, then you can find the length, and perimeter

hope it helps

Answer 5

okay so know jsut plug in thouse values an tell me what p equals in terms of x
