Question 1110195: If the width of a rectangle is 4ft less than it's length and the perimeter is 68ft,what are the dimensions of the rectangle Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! let length be x
width will be x-4
Perimeter = 2( length + Width)
68 = 2(x+x-4)
68 = 4x-8
4x= 76
x= 19
length = 19 ft. width = 15 ft.
