Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

W = 2L + 3, and:

P = 2W + 2L = 192

Substituting 2L + 3 for W, we get:

P = 2(2L + 3) + 2L = 192, or

4L + 6 + 2L = 192, or:

6L = 186

L = 186/6 = 31

The length is 31, the width is 62 + 3, or 65

Therefore, the perimeter P is P = 2(31) + 2(65) = 130 + 62  = 192 (OK!)
