Joanna measured her waistline and found that it is exactly 265 inches. What kind of data did Joanna derive?

Ok you should start by drawing a rectangle for the width you just label x and for the length it will be labeled 2x-3 because it's 3 ft less than twice the width now you need to know that you find perimeter by adding up all the sides so do that but I prefer multiplying each side by 2 because in a rectangle each side repeats twice so this is how I would solve it 2(x)+2(2x-3)=324 2x+4x-6=324. Distributing 6x-6=324. Adding like terms +6. +6 6x=330. Now divide by 6 X=55 Now are width we labeled as just x so we plug that in and our width is 55 ft Now we have to plug in 55 for our equation we made for the length 2(55)-3 110-3=107ft for your length

To find the width and length of the rectangle, set up equations using the given information. The width of the rectangle is 55 feet and the length is 107 feet. ;

The width of the rectangle is 55 feet, and the length is 107 feet. These values are derived from the perimeter equation that incorporates the relationship between length and width. This is solved step-by-step through algebraic manipulation.
