Answer:
Width= 12 yards
Length= 24 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle= 2(length + width)
Let
w= width
Twice as long as it is wide
Length= 2w
Perimeter of the rectangle= 72 yards
72 = 2(2w + w)
72 = 4w + 2w
72 = 6w
Divide both sides by 6
72/6 = w
12= w
w=12
Therefore,
=2(12)
=24 yards

Because we are looking for the scale factor of the model to the bridge (model first), the scale factor will be less than one.
Each fraction () can be simplified to . Therefore, the scale factor of the model to the bridge is .
