Perimeter 62 meters
length (L)
width (w): w=3L-1
Perimeter (P) P=2w+2L
[tex]\begin{gathered} P=2w+2L \\ 62=2(3L-1)+2L \\ 62=6L-2+2L \\ 62=8L-2 \\ 62+2=8L \\ \frac{64}{8}=L \\ 8=L \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} w=3L-1 \\ w=3(8)-1 \\ w=23 \end{gathered}[/tex]now we are going to find the area
Area (a) a=L*w
[tex]\begin{gathered} a=L\cdot w \\ a=8\cdot23 \\ a=184 \end{gathered}[/tex]The area is 184 squared meters
