A wire 130 cm long is bent into the shape of a rectangle which is 3 cm longer than it is wide.
Find the width and length of the rectangle.

w=31, L=34

Step-by-step explanation:

x+x+(x+3)+(x+3)=130

4x+6=130

4x=124

x= 31

width = 31, length = 34 bc it is 3 cm longer

3< x< 5

step-by-step explanation:

|x - 4| < 1

there are two solutions, one positive and one negative.   remember to flip the inequality when taking the negative solution

x-4 < 1       x-4 > -1

add 4 to each side

x-4+4 < 1+4       x-4+4 > -1+4

x< 5                 x> 3

3< x< 5
