Algebra.Com's Answer #360780 by prateekagrawal(56)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Here area= cost/rate \n" ); document.write( "so, \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "is the area. \n" ); document.write( "perimeter is 140 yards. \n" ); document.write( "so, 2(l+b) = 140 \n" ); document.write( "l+b= 70 \n" ); document.write( "b= 70- l ----(1) \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "area = l*b =l*(70-l)=1200 \n" ); document.write( "solve this, we will get l=40 yd or 30 yd. \n" ); document.write( "when l= 40yd, b= 30yd \n" ); document.write( "and when l=30yd , b= 40 yd. \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "so, dimensions are 40yd x 30 yd. \n" ); document.write( " |
