The answer is 240.5 hope you get the question
1.
area = L x w = 72
L = 2w
72 = 2w*w = 2w^2
divide by 2
36 = w^2
w = sqrt(36) = 6
l = 2*6 =12
perimeter = 2L +2W = 2*12 + 2*6 = 24+12 = 36
2.
sqrt(40)= 6.324555 cm ( round to 6.32 )
6.32 - 4 = 2.32 cm original length of a side
answer the original number is 6
(5x + 2 - 10) *2 = 44
10x + -16 = 44
10x = 60
x=6
