Let x be the initial width, then the initial length is x+20.
<span>If Elise decreases this length by 8 feet, she will get the new length x+20-8=x+12.
</span>
If Elise increases the width by 10 feet, <span>she will get the new width x+10.
</span><span>
</span><span>The new perimeter will be x+12+x+12+x+10+x+10=4x+44=172, 4x=172-44, 4x=128, x=128÷4, x=32.
</span><span>
</span><span>The initial width is 32 ft and the initial length is 32+20=52 ft.
</span><span>
</span><span>The new width will be 32+10=42 ft, the new length will be 32+12=44 ft.

then you simply multiple 640x3=1920
