The perimeter of a bedroom is 88 feet. the ratio of the width to the length is 5: 6. what are the dimensions of the bedroom?

20 feet wide, 24 feet long

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x - width, y - length.

The perimeter is given by the formula:

P = 2*(width + length) or using x, y

P = 2*(x + y) = 88

x + y = 44

And we know that the ratio between the sides is 5/6:

x/y = 5/6. x is on top because the length is bigger than the width

x = 5y/6

Plug this in the first expression:

y + 5y/6 = 44. Muliply by 6

6y + 5y = 264

11y = 264

y = 264/11 = 24.

So x = 5(24)/6  = 20

based on context clues you gave i'm assuming the answer would be c.
