Q:
a rectangular field has an area of 1452 square feet. if the width is three times greater than the length, what is the length of the field
Accepted Solution
A:
width=3x
length=x
Area of a rectangle=length x width
We have to solve the following equation.
x(3x)=1452
3x²=1452
x²=1452/3
x²=484
x=+√484=22
length=x=22 feet
width=3x=3(22 feet)=66 feet.
Answer: the length of the field would be 66 feet.
