Question 34677: Find the length of a rectangle meeting the specified conditions: The perimeter is 210 feet and the length is 110 percent of the width. You have to put ft after your answer Answer by Paul(988) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The length is 1.1x
The width is x
Equation:
2(x+1.1x)=210
4.2x=210
x=50
1.1(50)=55
Hence, the length is 55ft and the width is 50ft.
