Question

The perimeter P (in yards) of a soccer field is represented by the formula = 2 + 2, where is the length (in yards) and is the width (in yards). Find the width of the field

Answer 1

Answer:

$W=(\frac{P}{2}-L)\ yd$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The perimeter P (in yards) of a soccer field  is

$P=2L+2W$

where

L is the length in yards

W is the width in yards

Solve the equation for the width W

That means -----> isolate the variable W

Subtract 2L both sides

$P-2L=2W$

Divide by 2 both sides

$W=(\frac{P}{2}-L)\ yd$
