Length of the rectangle is 24.5 ft and width is 27.5 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Let the length of the rectangle be x, then width = x - 3. Find dimensions when perimeter = 104 ft
Perimeter = 2(length + width)
⇒ 104 = 2(x + x-3)
⇒ 104 = 2(2x - 3)
⇒ 104 = 4x - 6
⇒ 4x = 110
∴ x = 110/4 = 27.5
⇒ x - 3 = 24.5
