Question

the perimeter of a rectangle is 160ft. One fourth the length is the same as twice the width. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answer 1

Answer:

w = 80/9 ft.

L = 640/9 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

L = length    w = width

2w = L/4  so 8w = L

160 = 2L + 2w

160 = 2(8w) + 2w

160 = 16w+2w

160 = 18w

80/9 = w
