One of the sides of the rectangular plot is 2 times the other. Find the perimeter of the plot if its area is 8 m.

To find the perimeter of the rectangular area you need to know its length and width. Let x M be the width of the site, then 2x m is its length. We will make an equation under the conditions of the task and solve it:

x * 2x = 8,

2x² = 8,

x² = 8/2,

x² = 4,

x = ± 2 m.

Since the width cannot be negative, it is equal to 2 m. We will find the length of the site:

2 * 2 = 4 m.

The perimeter of any rectangle is searched by the formula:

P = 2 * (a + b), where a and b is the side of the rectangle.

Find perimeter:

P = 2 * (2 + 4) = 2 * 6 = 12 m.

Answer: The plot perimeter is 12 m.
