Respuesta :
perimeter = p
length = l
width = w
p = 2l + 2w
p = 48
l = 2w
w = ?
now plug those values into the base equation (p = 2l + 2w)
48 = 2(2w) + 2w
then solve for w
48 = 4w + 2w
48 = 6w
w = 8
because l is 2w, find the length using the width value (8)
l = 2w = 2(8) = 16
SO
length = 16 in
width = 8 in
perimeter = 48 in
length = l
width = w
p = 2l + 2w
p = 48
l = 2w
w = ?
now plug those values into the base equation (p = 2l + 2w)
48 = 2(2w) + 2w
then solve for w
48 = 4w + 2w
48 = 6w
w = 8
because l is 2w, find the length using the width value (8)
l = 2w = 2(8) = 16
SO
length = 16 in
width = 8 in
perimeter = 48 in
Answer:
w = 6in
l = 12in
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem we propose 2 equations
2w + 2l = 48in
l = 2w
We replace the value of l = (2w) into the first equation and solve
2w + 2(2w) = 48in
2w + 4w = 48in
6w = 48in
w = 48in/6
w = 8in
we replace the value of w and solve
l = 2(8in)
l = 16in
