Answer:

Equation:

2(x+(x+1))=18

Width = 4 feet

Length = 5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x feet be the width of the rectangle.

If the length of the sandbox is one foot longer than the width, then the length is x + 1 feet.

Use formula

\text{Perimeter}=2(\text{Width}+\text{Length})

The perimeter of a childs rectangular sandbox is 18 feet, thus

18=2(x+(x+1))\\ \\18=2(x+x+1)\\ \\18=2(2x+1)\\ \\9=2x+1\ [\text{Divided by 2}]\\ \\2x+1-1=9-1\\ \\2x=8\\ \\x=4\ feet \\ \\x+1=5 \ feet
