the perimeter of a basketball court is 102 meters, and length is 6 meters longer than twice the width, what r length and width. what is width _m.

Sagot :

Perimeter = 2(l + w)

Thus,

102 = 2(l + w)

l = 6 + 2w

102 = 2( 6 + 2w + w)
102 = 12 + 4w +2 w
102 = 12 + 6w
90 = 6w

Thus, w = 15.

Length = 6 + 2w
= 6 + 30
= 36.

Thus, the length is 36 meters and width is 15 meters.
