Answer:

200 feet squared

Step-by-step explanation:

W=Width

2W=Length

Perimeter = 2*Length + 2*Width

Now use substitution for the Length

60 = 2(2W) + 2(W)

60=4W + 2W = 6W divide both sides by 6

60/6 = 6W/6

10 = W

Width = 10 and Length is twice as long so it is 20. 10+10+20+20=60

The area is Length * Width = 20*10=200

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

\frac{2}{7} x = 300

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of all the species of birds sighted in the park

“300 species of birds that migrate. This accounts for 2/7 of all the species of birds sighted in the park”

the above sentence means “(2/7)x = 300”

now we can solve it :

(2/7)x = 300

⇔ 2x = 7×300

⇔ 2x = 2100

⇔ x = 2100/2

⇔ x = 1050
