Question 32130: the area of a garden shaped as a rectangle, is 72 square feet the length is 2times the width, what is the lenght? Answer by checkley71(8403) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! GIVEN THE LENGTH IS TWICE THE WIDTH THEN 72=W(2W) OR 72=2W~2 OR 36=W~2 OR
W=SQRT 36 OR W=6 AND L=2W OR L=12
PROOF 6X12=72
