    If the perimeter is 30

    and the length is twice the width

    c=length

    w=width

    2c=w

    a pool table has 4 sides, the two adjacent sides will be equal so we only need to account for 1 of the widths and 1 of the lengths

    meaning we only need to use half of the perimeter, or 15

    if the length is twice as long as the width

    the length would be 10

    the width would be 5

    there are two widths and 2 heights so the perimeter would correctly add up to 30 feet, proving you have the right answer
