the width is to be 16 feet less than 3 times the height. find the width and the height if the carpenter expects to use 34 feet of lumber to make it.

Sagot :

The computation is that the width is 21.5 feet and the height is 12.5.

How to compute the value?

Let the height = h

Let the width = (3 × h) - 16 = 3h - 16

Therefore, the dimensions will be:

h + 3h - 16 = 34

4h = 34 + 16

4h = 50

Divide

h = 50/4

h = 12.5

Therefore width = 3h - 16 = 3(12.5) - 16

= 37.5 - 16

= 21.5

The width is 21.5 feet and the height is 12.5.
