Mark bought 168 meters of fencing to enclose an area of pasture for his sheep. He plas to use all of the fencing to make a rectangle that's twice as long as it's wide. Use the information to create a system of equations. Let l=lenght and w = width.

 

Can anyone give me the whole answer please thanks

idk

Width =W
Length =2W =L

 

L = 2W.........................(1)
2[L + W] = 168.............(2), solve for L, W

Use substitutions to get:

 

L=56 meters - Length of the enclosure
W=28 meters - width of the enclosure.
