31. The length of a rectangle is 2 meters less than three times the width. What is the maximum
integer value of the length if the perimeter is
less than 43 meters?

l=15

Step-by-step explanation:

let length=l

width=w

l=3w-2

w=(l+2)/3

Perimeter P=2(l+w)=2[l+(l+2)/3]=2(4l+2)/3≤43

2(4l+2)≤129

8l+4≤129

8l≤125

l≤125/8

so l=15

P=2(l+w)=2(3w-2+w)=8w-4≤43

8w≤47

w≤47/8

l≤141/8-2

l≤125/8

l=15

28
