ANSWER
72 square feet
EXPLANATION
The perimeter of a rectangle is given by:
P= 2l+2w
It was given that, the perimeter of the rectangular mat, is 36 feet.
36= 2l+2w
Divide through by 2.

It was given also that, the length of the mat is twice its width.
This implies that,

Put equation (2) into equation (1) to get,



This means that the length is 12 ft.
The area of the rectangular mat is

Answer:
Let x represents the number of pants and y represents the number of shirts.
As per the statement:
Since, a clothing store are selling pants for $8.99 and shirts for $3.99
then;
total number of Pants cost is, $8.99x and total number of Shirt cost is, $3.99
Also, it is given that: You can spend as much as $60 and want to buy at least two pairs of pants.
then, we have the equation of inequality;
;......[1] where x, y are natural number.
x-intercept:
Substitute the value y= 0 in [1] and solve for x;


Simplify:

Since, x is in natural number;

Similarly.
For y-intercept:
Substitute the value x= 0 in [1] and solve for x;


Simplify:


Therefore, we have
