Question

Find the dimensions of a rectangular piece of land, if its length is 4m more than two times its breadth and the perimeter is 32m.​

Answer 1

Let the length be the= x

So,

Width. = 2x+4

Perimeter. 2(l+b).= 32 m

2(x+2x+4)=32

2(3x+ 4) =32

6x+8=32

6x =32-8

6x=24

x=4

l=2x+4

=2(4)+4

=8+4=12

Answer 2

Answer:
