This question is based on the concept of linear equation. Therefore, l = 2 w + 5 and 2w + 2l = 220 are system of equations represents this situation.
Given:
He needs the sandbox to be 5 feet longer than twice the width for safety purposes. Joe has 220 feet of material that he will use for the perimeter of the sandbox.
We need to determined the system of equations represents this situation.
According to the question,
It is given that, if l is the length of the sandbox and w is the width.
Now, 5 feet longer than twice the width.
In mathematically expressed as,
l = 2 w + 5 ...(1)
Joe has 220 feet of material that he will use for the perimeter of the sandbox. In mathematically expressed as,
As we know that, perimeter of rectangle is 2( l + b).
2w + 2l = 220 ...(2)
Therefore, l = 2 w + 5 and 2w + 2l = 220 are system of equations represents this situation.
