Alice’s backyard is a rectangular piece of property that is twice as long as it is wide. The total area of her yard is 1,000 m2. What is the approximate width of her backyard?

Respuesta :

The approximate width of Alice's backyard is 22.36 in.

Let l be the length of the rectangle and w be the width.
l = 2w
A = 1000 m2 = l*w
1000 m2 = 2w *w
500 m2 = w^2
√500 m2 = √w^2
w = 22.360679775 in or 22.36 in
