dans yard has a perinmeter of 20 feet the length is 6 feet what is the area

Answer 1

Recall that perimeter is the distance around a figure (or his yard in this case). If the yard is a rectangle, then the perimeter would be 2 tomes the length plus 2 times the width.

For a length of 6 feet and a perimeter of 20 feet:

P = 2l + 2w

20 = 2*6 + 2w

20 = 12 + 2w

8 = 2w

4 feet = w

The area of a rectangle is determined by:

A = l * w

A = 6 * 4

A= 24 square feet
