Answer: Length = 70 feet
Concept:
Here, we need to know how to find the perimeter of a rectangle.
Perimeter (rectangle) = 2 (l + w)
l = length
w = width
Solve:
<u>Given information</u>
l = l
w = 51 feet
P = 242 feet
<u>Given expression</u>
P = 2 (l + w)
<u>Substitute values into the expression</u>
242 = 2 (l + 51)
<u>Divide 2 on both sides</u>
242 / 2 = 2 (l + 51) / 2
121 = l + 51
<u>Subtract 51 on both sides</u>
121 - 51 = l + 51 - 51
Hope this helps!! :)
