Algebra.Com's Answer #183711 by unlockmath(1688)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hello, \n" ); document.write( "Let's represent the width with x and the length with 2x. To find the area we multiply length times width like this: \n" ); document.write( "x(2x)=18 rewritten it will look like: \n" ); document.write( "2x^2=18 Now divide both sides by 2 \n" ); document.write( "x^2=9 Now square root each side gives us: \n" ); document.write( "x=3 \n" ); document.write( "So the width is 3 and the length is 6 \n" ); document.write( "Check it out. Multiply 3 times 6 and gives us 18 \n" ); document.write( "RJ \n" ); document.write( "Check out the new book at: \n" ); document.write( "www.math-unlock.com \n" ); document.write( " |
