Answer: L = 59 feet, W = 29.5 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let P be the perimeter, L the length, and W the breath [breadth?] of the volleyball court. We'll assume it is rectangular.
We know that the P of the rectangle is 2L+2W:
P = 2L+2W
We also are told that:
L = 2W
We can use this definition of L in the forst equation:
P = 2L+2W
P = 2*(2W)+2W
P = 6W
P = 177 feet
Therefore 177 ft = 6W, and
W = 29.5 feet
The total for the length is 177 - 2W, or (177 - 59) ft
2L = (177 - 59)
2L = 118
L = 59 feet
