Question 261044: a rectangle whose perimeter is 176 feet, has a length that is six feet longer than its width. what is the area of the rectangle? Answer by Greenfinch(383) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let width be W, then length is W + 6
Perimeter is 2(W + W + 6) = 176
2W + 6 = 88
2W = 82
W = 41, length = 47 feet
Area is 41 x 47 = 1927 sq feet
