Respuesta :
perimeter is 2 width + 2 length = 98
2 (2x) + 2 (5x) = 98
4x+10x = 98
14x = 98
x = 7
so width = 2*7 = 14 feet
length = 5*7 = 35 feet
then the area of the rectangle is width*length = 14*35 = 490 feet
2 (2x) + 2 (5x) = 98
4x+10x = 98
14x = 98
x = 7
so width = 2*7 = 14 feet
length = 5*7 = 35 feet
then the area of the rectangle is width*length = 14*35 = 490 feet
The length and width of the rectangle are 35 feet and 14 feet respectively.
It is given that
The perimeter of a rectangle = 98feet
Length to Width ratio = 5:2
Let us take length and width as 5x and 2x respectively,
What is the perimeter of a rectangle?
The perimeter of a rectangle with length l and width b is 2(l+b).
So, the perimeter of the rectangle =2(5x+2x) =14x
It is given that
Perimeter = 98feet
14x = 98
x = 7
So, Length = 5x = 5*7 =35
Width = 2x = 2*7 = 14
Therefore, the length and width of the rectangle are 35 feet and 14 feet respectively.
