Problema Solution
a rectangle soccer field is twice as long as it wide. if the perimeter of the soccer field 300 yards, what are its dimensions.
Answer provided by our tutors
let
l = the length of the soccer field
w = the width of the soccer field
a rectangle soccer field is twice as long as it wide
l = 2w
the perimeter of the soccer field 300 yards
2(l + w) = 300
by solving the system of equations
l = 2w
2(l + w) = 300
we find
l = 100 yards
w = 50 yards
