Question

The parks rectangle garden area is 450 square yards it length is twice its width find the dimensions of the.garden begin with the equation (2w)(w)=450

Answer 1

width = 15 yards and length = 30 yards

the area of the garden is 450 sq. yards

equate (2w)(w) = 450

2w² = 450

divide both sides by 2

w² = $\frac{450}{2}$ = 225

hence w =√225 = 15

width = 15 yards and length = 2 × 15 = 30 yards
