Question

Find the missing length and width.

A farmer is building a fence around an area of his land. The fence will form a rectangle measured in yards squared, what are the measurements of the length and width?
Select all that apply.
(the options are:)
A - 24 yards
B - 28 yards
C - 48 yards
D - 96 yards
E - 20 yards

Answer 1

so basically the equation pans out to be

2L=w+8

2(24)=(40)+8

48=48

and this is correct because

L times W is 960yards^2

and 24 times 40 is 960
