Let the length of the rectangle be L and the width be W.

Given that the length is twice the width, Then :

L = 2W .....(1)

But we know that the perimeter is 36.

==> 2L + 2W = 36

==> 2L + L = 36

==> 3L = 36

==> L = 36/3 = 12

==> W = 12/2 = 6

Now we will calculate the area:

==> A = L * W = 12* 6 = 72 square feet.

Then the area of the rectangle is 72 square feet.

I am 100% sure that that would be the answer!!

Longitud = L Ancho = A
2A + 2L = 54
L = 2A Sustituir este valor por L en la primera ecuación:
2A + 2(2A) = 54
2A + 4A = 54
6A = 54
A = 9
También porque L = 2A,
L = 2(9) = 18

Solve the equation x² = 1.21 *

gogolik [260]

Answer:

x = 1.1, -1.1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because:

1) Take the root of both sides and solve.

$\sqrt{1.21}$ = 1.1

2) x can also equal -1.1 because -1.1 times -1.1 gives us a positive 1.21 because negative x negative = positive

Hope this helps!

What is X squared +3x-70

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

x = 7, x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^2+3x-70 = 0$

Use the quadratic formula.

$x = \frac{-3 + \sqrt{3^2-4(1)(-70)} }{2(1)} \\x = \frac{-3 - \sqrt{3^2-4(1)(-70)} }{2(1)} \\$

Solve.

x = 7, x = -10

You can also factor if you want - that is a faster method.
