Answer:
The answer is 60cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w
Area of rectangle = l × w
where
l is the length
w is the width
From the question
The length is twice its width is written as
l = 2w
Substitute this into the formula for finding the area of the rectangle
Area = 200 yd²
200 = 2w²
Divide both sides by 2
w² = 100
Find the square root of both sides
width = 10cm
Substitute this value into l = 2w
That's
l = 2(10)
length = 20cm
Perimeter of the rectangle is
2(20) + 2(10)
= 40 + 20
= 60cm
Hope this helps you
