Given that a rectangle with length $3x$ inches and width $x + 5$ inches has the property that its area and perimeter have equal values, what is $x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Length = 3x

Width = x + 5

Area of Rectangle:

=> (Length)(Width)

=> (3x)(x+5)

=>

Perimeter of Rectangle:

=> 2 (Length) + 2 (Width)

=> 2(3x) + 2(x+5)

=> 6x + 2x + 10

=> 8x + 10

Given Condition is:

Perimeter = Area

= 8x + 10

Either,

x - 1 = 0       OR     3x + 10 = 0

x = 1             OR       3x = -10

x = 1             OR        x = -10 / 3
