Students in mr. halperts class are measuring the width of a rectangle that is 6 2/3 inches. the length of the rectangle is twice its width. what is the perimeter of the rectangle?

Finding Length and Width When You Know Area and Perimeter

If you happen to know the distance around the rectangle, which is its perimeter, you can solve a pair of equations for L and W. The first equation is that for area, A = L ⋅ W, and the second is that for perimeter, P = 2L + 2W

step-by-step explanation:

start with a line segment pq that we will copy. mark a point r that will be one endpoint of the new line segment. set the compasses' point on the point p of the line segment to be copied. adjust the compasses' width to the point q. the compasses' width is now equal to the length of the line segment pq.
