The length of a rectangle is 4 meters less than three times its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 48 meters, then what is the value of the length (in meters)?

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Think about it visually. 3x-4 is the length and x is the width. Since a rectangle has 2 parralel and equal sides, it's just double those. The equation is 8x-8=48. 48 is the total as given in the problem.

8x-8=48

8x=56

x=7

The width is 7

linear

step-by-step explanation:

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
