Question 706525: 80 feet of lumbar is used to enclose a rectangulr field. The field is twice as long as it is wide. What are the dimensions of the field? Answer by checkley79(3341) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! L=2W
P=2L+2W
80=2(2W)+2W
80=4W+2W
80=6W
W=80/6
W=13.33 FT FOR THE WIDTH.
L=2*13.33=26.66 FT. FOR THE LENGTH.
PROOF:
80=2*13.33+2*26.66
80=26.66+53.32
80=80
