Hi there! :)
[tex]\large\boxed{ l = 19 in}[/tex]
Formula for the perimeter of a rectangle:
P = 2l + 2w
Let w = width, and (2w - 3) = length. Plug in the given expressions:
60 = 2(2w - 3) + 2(w)
Distribute the coefficient outside of the parenthesis:
60 = 4w - 6 + 2w
Combine like terms:
60 = 6w - 6
Add 6 to both sides:
66 = 6w
Divide both sides by 6:
w = 11
Substitute in this value of "w" into the equation for the length:
2(11) - 3 = 19.
