the rectangle whose length is twice the width . the perimeter of the yard is 720 feet what are the dimensions of yer yard\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter = 2L + 2W\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "where L = length of rectangle in feet
\n" ); document.write( " W = width of rectangle in feet\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " L = 2W\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter = 2L + 2W
\n" ); document.write( " 720 = 2L + 2W\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since L = 2W, we get\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " 720 = 2(2W) + 2W
\n" ); document.write( " 6W = 720
\n" ); document.write( " W = 120\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " L = 2W = 2(120) = 240\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The dimensions of the yard are 120 feet and 240 feet
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
