Answer:

<h2>length = 159 yards</h2><h2>width = 42 yards</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w

where

l is the length

w is the width

From the question

Perimeter = 402 yards

The statement

the length of the field is 9 yards less than quadruple the width is written as

l = 4w - 9

Substitute this is expression into the above formula and solve for the width

That's

402 = 2( 4w - 9) + 2w

402 = 8w - 18 + 2w

10w = 402 + 18

10w = 420

Divide both sides by 10

<h3>w = 42</h3>

Substitute this value into l = 4w - 9

That's

l = 4(42) - 9

l = 168 - 9

<h3>l = 159</h3>

Therefore

length = 159 yards

width = 42 yards

Hope this helps you

Anika [276]

1. I did 9x8 since you usually work 8 hours a day but did not give answer, so I add or subtracted 0.5 to 8.

2. i did 9*7.5=67.5 , keep in mind that he worked for 11 hrs that day so 11-7.5=3.5 hours left

3. then I subtracted 67.5 from 114.75 and got 47.25

4. I divided 3.5 by 47.25 and got 13.5
