Answer:

W = 15 ft. and L = 30 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 90 ft.

Twice as long as it is wide: L=2W

P = 2(L + W) = 2(2W + W) = 6W

90 = 6W

W = 15 ft. and L = 30 ft.

Answer:

The dimensions are: Width= 15ft

Length=30ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of fence=90feet

He wants to make a rectangle with dimensions length and with.

The rectangle length is twice as long as the width= L= 2W

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + W)

90= 2(2W +W)

90= 6W

90/6=W=15ft

L=2W= 2× 15=30ft
