Question

The perimeter of a school volley ball court is 177 ft and the length is twice the width. what are the dimensions of the volleyball court ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let length be 2x and breath be x.

2x+x=177

3x=177

x=177/3=59

therefore length=118ft and breadth = 59ft

Answer 2

Answer:

length is 59ft and breadth is 29.5ft

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter=2(length+breadth)

let breadth be x,

then length is 2x

177=2(2x+x)

177=2×3x

177÷3=2x

59=2x

x=59÷2

x=29.5

therefore breadth=x,which is equal to 29.5ft

length is 2x, which is equal to 29.5×2=59ft
