Tracy needs to find the length and width of the equipment room where she works. the room is 2 meters longer than it is wide. the perimeter is 16 meters. what is the width in meters?

The answer to your question is: width = 3 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Perimeter = 16 meters

The room is 2 meters longer than its width, then   length = width + 2

Perimeter = 2 length + 2 width

   16 =  2(width + 2) + 2 width

    16 = 2 width + 4 + 2 width

   16 = 4 width +4

   16 - 4 = 4 width

    12 = 4 width

    12/4 = width

     3 = width  

length = 3 + 2 = 5 meters

341

step-by-step explanation:

all you have to do is 9x31 (which equals 279) and then 20x31 (which equals 620). then you have to subtract. 620-279=341.
