Algebra.Com's Answer #618106 by fractalier(6550)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! P = perimeter = 2L + 2W = 500 \n" ); document.write( "But L = 110 + W so substitute that into the first equation and get \n" ); document.write( "2(110+W)+2W=500 \n" ); document.write( "220+2W+2W=500 \n" ); document.write( "4W+220=500 \n" ); document.write( "4W=280 \n" ); document.write( "W=70 feet \n" ); document.write( "L = 180 feet \n" ); document.write( " |
