The length and width of a rectangle are in the ratio 4 to 3.The area is 192.Find the length and width.
----------
4:3 is the same as 4x:3x where 4x is the length and 3x is the width.
------
Equation:
4x*3x = 192
12x^2 = 192
------
x^2 = 18
x = 3sqrt(2)
------
length = 4x = 12sqrt(2
width = 3x = 9sqrt(2)
