Given:
- the perimeter of a rectangular field is 84 yards
- the ratio of the length to the width is 2:1
To find:
- the length
- the width
- the area
Answer:
Let's assume that the length is 2x and the width is 1x.
We know that the formula to find the perimeter of a rectangle is as follows:
Perimeter = 2 × (Length + Width)
Substituting the values that we have, into the formula above,
84 = 2 × (2x + 1x)
84 = 2 × 3x
84/2 = 3x
42 = 3x
x = 42/3
x = 14
Since we know the value of 'x', let's use it to find the length and the width.
Length = 2x = 2 × 14 = 28
Width = 1x = 1 × 14 = 14
Since we now know the length and the width, let's find the area of the rectangle.
The formula to find the area of a rectangle:
Area = Length × Width
Substituting the values we have into the formula,
Area = 28 × 14
Area = 392
Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 392 square yards.
Hope it helps. :)

5 19/14 =89/14
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2=10/20
The perimeter of an object is given by the sum of all the sides of the object. Thus the perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the four sides of the quadrilateral.
Given a quadrilateral with sides: n, 2n - 12, 3n + 4, n + 7
The sum is n + 2n - 12 + 3n + 4 + n + 7 = 7n - 1 = 90
Thus, 7n = 90 + 1 = 91 and n = 91 / 7 = 13.
Therefore, the length of the side KL is n = 13 centimeters.
