Problema Solution
The perimeter of a rectangular playing field is 244 feet. If its length is 2 feet longer than twice its width, what are the dimensions of the field?
Answer provided by our tutors
P=2L+2W
L=2W+2
244=2(2W+2)+2W
244=4W+4+2W
244=6W+4
6W=244-4
6W=240
W=240/6
W=40 ANS. FOR THE WIDTH.
L=2*40+2=80+2=82 ANS.
