Answer:

width = 11 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is 2 times length + width.

He already decided that the perimeter is at most 60 feet and the length is 19 feet. Then replacing in the formula for perimeter you have:

60 = 2 ( 19 + width)

30 = 19 + width

11 = width

Therefore the maximum width is 11 feet
