cory has 42 feet of fencing around his garden. the garden is rectangular in shape and its length is equal to twice the width minus 3 feet. write a system of equations to find the length and width of the garden. what is the length and width of the garden?

Sagot :

The variables as length are L and width is W and the system of equations is L = 2W - 3 and 42 = 2(L + W) and the length and width are 13 feet and 8 feet respectively.

What is a rectangle?

A rectangle is a geometrical figure in which opposite sides are equal.

The angle between any two consecutive sides will be 90 degrees.

Area of rectangle = length × width.

As per the given total fencing = 42 feet

Let's say the length is L and the width is W.

As per the given,

L = 2W - 3

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

42 = 2(L + W)

21 = 2W - 3 + W

21 + 3 = 3W

W = 8 feet

And, L = 2(8) - 3 = 13 feet

Hence "The variables as lengths are L and width is W and the system of equations is L = 2W - 3 and 42 = 2(L + W) and the length and width are 13 feet and 8 feet respectively".
