Answer:

Width is 15, length is 35.We can check our answer by multiplying the length by 2 and the width by two in order for the perimeter to be equal to 200.15 times 2 is 30 and 35 times two equals 70.70+30=100 so our solution satisfies our problem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be x.Then the length should be x+20.The farmer can’t use more than 100 ft of fencing and by mentioning enclosing a rectangle area for a pigpen, we can tell that 100 is the perimeter.So 2(x+20) + 2(x)=100.2x+ 40 + 2x=100.4x+40=100.4x=60.X is 15 which is the width so then the length is 35.
