The perimeter of a basketball court is 90 meters and the length is 6 meters longer than twice the width. what are the width and length show how you got the answer

A basketball court is in a rectangular shape and the perimeter for a rectangle is the addition of each one of its sides or P= 2W + 2L (L= length & W= width).  P=90 L = 2w+6 With the information provided your have to formulate the equation: 90=2W+2(2W+6) Then solve for W: First distribute the 2 90=2W + 4W + 12 Combine common factors 90 = 6W + 12 Subtract 12 from both sides 78 = 6W Divide 6 on both sides W=13 Now that you have your width, you can plug it into the equation to find the length (L=2W+6) 2(13) +6 =L 26 + 6 = L 32 = L  You can always double check by making sure that the totals equal 90 for the perimeter 32+32+13+13=90 2(32) + 2(13) =90
