Let x = width
x+1 is then the length

2x+2(x+1)=66
2x+2x+2=66
4x=64
x=16
deck will be 16x17, nice for a BBQ. :)

The width of a large, rectangular-shaped tree farm is 1.9 kilometers. The length of the farm is 4.4 kilometers. What are the bes
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

9 square kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's round the width to 2.0 kilometers, and round the length to 4.5 kilometers.

We know that area is length times width, so

A = lw

A = 2.0*4.5

<u>A = 9.0 square kilometers</u>

If we do this on the calculator, it's around 9.36 square kilometers, so our estimate was good.

The length of a rectangle is 6m more then the width. The area is 40m^2 . What is the length and the width?
erastova [34]

let the width of the rectangle be x

area of rectangle is l*b

x * (x + 6) = 40^2

x^2 + 6x = 40^2

x^2 + 6x = 1600

x + 6x =√1600

x + 6x = 40

7x = 40

x = 5.7
