Question

The perimeter of a rectangular field is 364 yards. If the width of the field is 83 yards, what is the length

Answer 1

99 yards

Explanation:

To find the perimeter of a rectangle, the equation is perimeter = 2(width) +2(height). When we plug the known variables into this equation, it is 364 = 166 + 2(height). Now all we have to do is isolate the variable like in any algebra equation, leaving us with our final answer of 99 = height.
