Question

the area of a tabletop is 18 square feet. the perimeter of the same table is 18 feet. what are the dimensions ​

Answer 1

3ft by 6ft

Explanation:

Area = l*w

P = 2(l+w)

We know that the area is the same as the perimeter

2 (l+w) = 18

Divide each side by 2

l+w =9

Our choices our 1,9

2,8

3,6

4,5

we know that they have to multiply to 18

1*9 =9

2,8 = 16

3,6=18

4,5=20

They only choice is 3 by 6
