I plan to have a rectangular vegetable garden in which the length is twice its width. if the area of the garden is 72m². find the measure of the length and the width of the garden.​

Sagot :

Answer:

Width = 6 m

Length = 12 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A = 72 m^2

L = 2W

Formula for the area of rectangle:

A = L × W

Solving for the width:

A = L × W

72 = 2W × W

72 = 2W^2

72/2 = W^2

36 = W^2

6 = W

Solving for the length

A = L × W

72 = L × 6

72/6 = L

12 = L

Hope it helps.
