Problema Solution

The length is twice its width Perimeter of the rectangle 42m what is the length and width

Answer provided by our tutors

let


l = the length of the rectangle

w = the width of the rectangle


the length is twice its width


l = 2w


perimeter of the rectangle 42m


2(l + w) = 42


by solving the system of equations


l = 2w

2(l + w) = 42


we find


l = 14 m


w = 7 m
