if it takes 600 feet of fence to enclose a rectangular lot that is 132 feet wide, then how deep is the lot?
I am assuming that the fence is on all four sides of the rectangular lot.
The perimeter of a rectangle is found with the formula , where P=perimeter, L=length, and W=width
P=600
W=132
L=x






The lot is 168 ft deep.
Happy Calculating!!!
