Given that the length of a rectangle is 3 yards more than twice the width, and the area of the rectangle is 54 yards, the following calculation must be performed to find the dimensions of the rectangle, knowing that the area of a rectangle arises from multiplying its base by its height:

2X + 3 + X = 54

3X + 3 = 54

3X = 54 - 3

X = 51/3

X = 17

(17 x 2) + 3 = 37

Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 37 yards, and the width of the rectangle is 17 yards.

Find the length x.<br> pls help

scoray [572]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x we set up an equation as so:

$\frac{4.5}{x} =\frac{6}{8}$

Then we solve by multiplying 4.5 by 8 and 6 by x

$6x=36$ Solve for x

$\frac{6x}{6} =\frac{36}{6}$ x = 6

To check our answer when we substitute x or 6 we divide to make sure both sides equal the same number

$\frac{4.5}{6} =\frac{6}{8}$ when divided both equals 0.75
