Rectangular perimeter and area problem

Assignment Help Algebra
Reference no: EM13118135

Given, this partial equation, how do I complete it?

Finding the width I used this equation - L= 2W + 2

I know my length is 10 feet. 10 = 2W + 2

10 -2 ft = 2W +2 - 2

8 = 2W

8/2 = 2W/2

4 = W

Questions:

Define the shape of the rectangular area by establishing a relationship between the length and width of the rectangle. For example, L = 2W + 5, or W = 3L â?" 4. Be sure to include the appropriate units (inches, feet, yards, miles, or meters).

Using the fact that A = LW, together with the relationship defined in step 2, eliminate one of the variables to set up a quadratic equation.

Solve the quadratic equation using any of the techniques learned in this unit. The solution(s) will be one of the dimensions; use step 2 to find the other.

Now determine the perimeter so that you will know how much fencing to buy.

Summarize your findings.
