Answer:
width = 9.36 ft
length = 21.36 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width be x ft long. Then it follows that the length will be (x+12) ft long.
To calculate the area would then be
x(x+12) = 200
x
x = 9.36 ft or x = -21.36 ft
We take the positive answer. So the dimensions are
width = 9.36 ft
length = 9.36 + 12 = 21.36 ft
