Suppose the length is L feet and the width is W feet. Then, Perimeter = 14 => 2*(L+W) = 14 or L+W=7 Also, Area = 12 => L*W=12 You could try trial and error to solve these two equations and in this particular case you will get to the answer quite quickly but for a more general method: L+W=7 => W=7-L Substituting in the second equation, L*(7-L)=12 or L^2 - 7L + 12 = 0 L^2 - 3L - 4L + 12 = 0 (L-3)*(L-4) = 0 so L=3 or L=4 But L>W and L+W = 7 so L > 3.5 so L= 4 => W=3 feet
40 meters.
Perimeter is 36 mArea is 72 square m
The width is either 2ft or 7ft.
The answer is 320 square metres
Perimeter = 32 inches. Area = 55 square inches.
perimeter is the measure around the figure; area is the measure within the figure formula: perimeter: length+length+width+width=perimeter (for square or rectangle) area: length times width= area ( for square or rectangle)
