Question

Andre has a dog pen in the shape of a rectangle.

The perimeter of his dog pen is 60 feet.
The length of his dog pen is twice its width.
What is the area of Andre’s dog pen?

Answer 1

So for number 1 and 2

Explanation:

Perimeter is = 2(L+W)

L=2w as it said on the problem above.

60=2 (2w+w)

60= 2 (3w)

60 = 6w

w= 10 , L=20 P=60

Area of rectangle = L x W

20 x 10 = 200

2)You would have twice as many hot dogs and 24 is two times 12 and if you add them you get 36.
