Stanley bought a rectangular piece of land to build an amusement park. The entire area of his land is 720 km2. The length of the land is 5 times the width of the land. What is the length and width of the piece of land that Stanley bought to build his amusement park?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Width=12 km

Length=60 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = length x width

Length=5 x width

so, x(5x)=720

5[tex]x^{2}[/tex]=720

[tex]x^{2}[/tex]=144

x=sqrt(144)=12

Width=12 km

Length=60 km
