You can put this solution on YOUR website! the perimeter of a rectangle park is 300 feet. The length of the park is 20 feet longer than the width. Find the length of the park
------------------------
P = 2(L + W)
---
300 = 2(W+20 + W)
150 = 2W + 20
2W = 130
W = 65 feet (width)
L = W+20 = 85 feet (length)
