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.
p = 4s a = s2 2p = a - 48 8s = a - 48 8s = s2 - 48 -s2 + 8s + 48 = 0 s2 - 8s - 48 = 0 (s - 12)(s - 4) = 0 s = 12 or 4
