Question 500731: a rectangle has an area of 36 square feet and a lenght that is 4 times the width. what are the dimensions of the rectangle? Answer by cleomenius(959) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! width = x
length = 4x
4x^2 = 36
x^2 = 9
x = 3 ft width.
4(3) = 12 ft length
= 36 feet sq.
