Let's assign the width to a variable, with that variable being x. the length is two times the width, so it would be 2x. the perimeter of a rectangle is length + length + width + width, so you would add 2x + 2x + x + x = 24 inches. combine like terms (x) to get 6x = 24. divide both sides by 6 to get x = 4. so the width (x) is 4, and the length (2x) is 8. the area of a rectangle is length times width, so multiply 4 * 8. that would get you 32 inches^2.
I think it is <u><em>C</em></u>. <u>The other answer is INCORRECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</u> Use the properties of literal equations.

Challenge The members of the city cultural center have decided to put on a play once a night for a
week. Their auditorium holds 500 people. By selling tickets, the members would like to raise $2,350
every night to cover all expenses. Let d represent the number of adult tickets sold at $6.50. Lets
represent the number of student tickets sold at $3.50 each. If all 500 seats are filled for a
performance, how many of each type of ticket must have been sold for the members to raise exactly
$2,350? At one performance there were three times as many student tickets sold as adult tickets. If
there were 400 tickets sold at that performance, how much below the goal of $2,350 did ticket sales
fall?
The members sold
adult tickets and
student tickets.
