Answer:

3 ft by 8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given the area as 24 square feet which means that

L×w= 24....eqn(1)

We were given the perimeter as 22 square feet which means that

22= 2(L +w).......eqn(2)

If we divide both cause by 2 in eqn(2) we have

11= L+ w .....eqn(3)

W= 11-L.........eqn(4)

Substitute eqn(4 into eqn(1)

L× (11-L)=24

-L^2 +11L-24=0

If we factorize

(L-8)(L-3)

L=3 or 8

From eqn4)

W=11-L

At L=3

W=11-3=8

Hence, the dimension is 3 ft by 8 ft

Please help me to solve this problem
Leto [7]
So you can choose any number from 11 to 19.

I'll choose 11 for now.

Then you write, 11, the number, and then spell it out, eleven.

To show how many tens and ones, you can make a place value chart. You would make two boxes, the first one for tens and the other for ones.

You would put a 1 in the tens place and a 1 in the ones place.

I hope this helps!
