The length of rectangle is 58 feet and width of rectangle is 49 feet

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that rectangle has a perimeter of 214 feet

Let "l" be the length of rectangle

Let "w" be the width of rectangle

It's length is 9 feet longer than its width

length = 9 + width

l = 9 + w ----- eqn 1

<em><u>The perimeter of rectangle is given as:</u></em>

perimeter = 2(length + width)

Substituting the given values we get,

214 = 2(l + w)

Substitute eqn 1 in above expression

214 = 2(9 + w + w)

214 = 2(9 + 2w)

214 = 18 + 4w

4w = 214 - 18

4w = 196

w = 49

Thus length = 9 + w = 49 + 9 = 58

Thus length of rectangle is 58 feet and width of rectangle is 49 feet

The area of a rectangular field is 6840 m2. If the width of the field is 72m , what is its length?
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

I believe that the answer is 95 meters.

Explanation:

Okay, so to solve this question, you must know the formula to solve for the area of a rectangle/square.

<em>Area of a rectangle/square - </em><em>l x w</em>

<em />

In this question, you can see the the width (72 m) and the area (6840 m²) is already given. What you can do in this situation is to use the opposite operator (division) to solve for the length of the rectangular field.

<em>6840 ÷ 72 = </em><em>95</em>

You can always double check to see if the number is correct.

<em>A = l x w</em>

<em>= 72 m x 95 m</em>

<em>= </em><em>6840 m</em>²

Really hope this helped. :)
