Let the width be 1/3x and the length be x:
2(width+length) = perimeter
2(1/3x+x) = 96 feet
2/3x+2x = 96
Multiply all terms by 3 to eradicate the fraction:
2x+6x = 288
8x = 288
Divide both sides by 8:
x = 36
Therefore: width = 12 feet and length = 36 feet
Check: 12+12+36+36 = 96 feet
2(length + height)= perimeter
You forgot to put in the length of the rectangle's perimeter.
a rectangle has a perimeter of 72m. If the length is 20 m longer than the width find its dimensions?
Length = 9 Width = 9 Your rectangle is a square.
If the given dimensions are the length and width of a rectangle then its perimeter is 15.6+4.5+15.6+4.5 = 40.2
A rectangle has two dimensions - length and width. Only if both dimensions are doubled, then the perimeter will be doubled.
2(length + height)= perimeter

a rectangle has a perimeter of 72m. If the length is 20 m longer than the width find its dimensions?
the perimeter of a rectangle is 700 yards. what are the dimensions of the rectangle if the lenght is 80 yards more than the width?
Let the width of the rectangle be represented by "w" inches. Since the length is twice the width, it can be expressed as "2w" inches. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2(l + w), where P is the perimeter, l is the length, and w is the width. Substituting the given values into the formula, we get 48 = 2(2w + w). Simplifying, we find that 48 = 6w. Solving for w, we find that the width of the rectangle is 8 inches, and the length is 16 inches.
The perimeter of a rectangle is found by the following formula: (Length x 2) + (Width x 2) or Length + Length + Width + Width.
Length = 9 Width = 9 Your rectangle is a square.
A rectangle by definition has two pairs of sides with equal length. Since perimeter equals the length of all the sides. The equation for the perimeter of a rectangle could be thought of as: 2L + 2W = P Where L represents the length of one side of the rectangle and W represents the length of the adjacent (next to) side of the rectangle. If you know the length of one side and the perimeter, plug those values in as L and P and then solve for W. That will give you L and W which are the dimensions of the rectangle.
If the given dimensions are the length and width of a rectangle then its perimeter is 15.6+4.5+15.6+4.5 = 40.2
The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is: p = 2(l + w) In other words, just add all four sides. You can't calculate the perimeter of the rectangle if you know only the length.
The dimensions of a rectangle are the length and the width. With these two measurements , the area of the rectangle can be calculated : Area = length x width. The perimeter can also be found : Perimeter = (2 x length) + (2 x width).
