There are no real values of and that satisfy both the area and perimeter given.

Solución

To determine the values of and , we can use the given information about the area and perimeter of the tennis court.
Given:
  • Area of the tennis court =
  • Perimeter of the tennis court =
We know that the area of a rectangle (such as a tennis court) is given by the formula:
And the perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula:
Let’s denote the length of the tennis court as cm and the breath as m. We can set up the equations based on the given information and solve for and .
Solve the system of equations by following steps:
  • step0: Solve using the substitution method:
  • step1: Solve the equation:
  • step2: Substitute the value of
  • step3: Simplify:
  • step4: Cross multiply:
  • step5: Simplify the equation:
  • step6: Expand the expression:
  • step7: Move the expression to the left side:
  • step8: Multiply both sides:
  • step9: Solve using the quadratic formula:
  • step10: Simplify the expression:
  • step11: Simplify the expression:
  • step12: The expression is undefined:
  • step13: The system of equations has no solution in the set of real numbers:
  • step14: Alternative Form:

    The system of equations does not have real solutions. This means that the given information does not lead to a unique solution for the values of and . Therefore, we cannot determine the exact values of and based on the provided information.

The Deep Dive

To solve for the values of and given that the area of the tennis court is and the perimeter is , we can start by using the formulas for area and perimeter.
  1. Convert cm to m: Since we want to work in the same units for the calculations, we convert from cm to meters: .
  2. Area Formula: The area of the rectangle is given by .
  3. Perimeter Formula: The perimeter of the rectangle is calculated by .
Now we solve these two equations.
From equation (2):
Substituting in equation (1):
Multiplying the entire equation by 100 to eliminate the fraction:
Rearranging gives us:
Now we can solve this quadratic equation using the quadratic formula , where :
This gives two possible values for :
Using
Using :
Thus, the two potential solutions are:
Now converting these back to the length in cm and m:
  • 1000 cm = 10 m
  • 4 m = 400 cm
  • or vice versa.
Hence, the dimensions can be and .
