Answer:

<h2>The length is 21.3 meters</h2><h2>The width is 10.6 meters</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is on the mensuration of flat shapes, a rectangular shape

we are required to solve for the length and width of the rectangular ball court

we know that the perimeter is expressed as

P= 2(L)+2(W)

let the width be x

hence the length is 2x

Given data

perimeter = 64 meters

length l= 2x

width w= x

Substituting our data  and solving for x we have

64= 2(2x)+2(x)\\\\64= 4x+2x\\\\64= 6x

Dividing both sides by 6 we have

x=\frac{64}{6}\\\\ x= 10.66

Hence the width is 10.66 meters

The length is 2x= 2(10.66)= 21.33 meters

How do you find the area of this composite figure?
Yanka [14]
Split the shape into smaller shapes, (see attachment)
find the area of the split shapes. So first find the area of the triangles
A = 1/2bh
A = 1/2*2*3
A = 1/2*6
A = 3
so that is the area of one triangle. the area of the other is
A = 1/2*4*3
A = 1/2 * 12
A = 6
now find the area of the rectangle
A = l*w
A = 9*3
A = 27
add them all together
27 + 6+ 3 = 36
the area of the total figure is 36

Its C. Add 3 and 15 which gives you 18. Then move the variable (4x) to the left. Then combine like terms which are the x’s and you should get 3x. Then divide both sides by 3. (18/3 = 6)
