Question

16. The perimeter of a school volleyball court is
177 ft and the length is twice the width. What are the
dimensions of the volleyball court?​

Answer 1

Answer: Length of court =59ft and width =29.50ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let length and width be l and b respectively. Then l=2b   ⟶(1)

Perimeter of court =177ft.

⇒2(l+b)=177

⇒2(2b+b)=177

⇒6b=177

⇒b=  177/6=29.50ft

∴1=2×29.50=59 ft.

∴ Length of court =59ft and width =29.50ft.
