If the length of a rectangle is a two-digit number with identical digits and the width is 1/10 the length and the perimeter is 2
Oksanka [162]

If the length of a rectangle is a two-digit number with identical digits and the width is 1/10 the length and the perimeter is 2 times the area of the rectangle, what is the the length and the width

Solution:

Let the length of rectangle=x

Width of rectangle=x/10

Perimeter is 2(Length+Width)

= 2(x+x/10)

Area of Rectangle= Length* Width=x*x/10

As, Perimeter=2(Area)

So,2(x+x/10)=2(x*x/10)

Multiplying the equation with 10, we get,

2(10x+x)=2x²

Adding Like terms, 10x+x=11x

2(11x)=2x^2

22x=2x²

2x²-22x=0

2x(x-11)=0

By Zero Product property, either x=0

or, x-11=0

or, x=11

So, Width=x/10=11/10=1.1

Checking:

So, Perimeter=2(Length +Width)=2(11+1.1)=2*(12.1)=24.2

Area=Length*Width=11*1.1=12.1

Hence, Perimeter= 2 Area

As,24.2=2*12.1=24.2

So, Perimeter=2 Area

So, Answer:Length of Rectangle=11 units

Width of Rectangle=1.1 units

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

<h2>64 cm²</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

the scale from a square park to a drawing of the park is 5 m to 1 cm

the actual park has an area of 1,600 m²

find:

what is the area of the drawing of the park​

solution:

drawing scale is 5m : 1cm

<u>1,600 m² </u> = <u>      5² m²  </u>    

   x                  1² cm²

cross multiply:

5² m² x = 1600 m² (1 cm²)

x =<u> 1600 m² </u>

      5² m²

x = 64 cm²

therefore, the area of a square park in the drawing is 64 cm²
