Question 1134966: find the length and width of a rectangular sandbox, where the length is 3 feet longer than its width if you are building it with 30 feet of lumber? Answer by mathsolverplus(88) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Perimeter given: 30feet
l=length
w=width
l = 3 + w
perimeter = (length + width)2
30 = (3+w+w)2
15 = 3+2w
12 = 2w
w =6
If w=6, l=9
Length = 9 feet
Width = 6 feet
