Asked by Amy~

Perimeter is 60 ft. Find length and width if length is 8 ft longer than the width.

Would it be 60=(8+l)+w

I don't know where to put the 8
But there's two variables
how would I find both l and w
Answered by Ms. Sue
P = 2L + 2W

L = W + 8

60 = 2(W+8) + 2W
60 = 2W + 16 + 2W
60 = 4W + 16
60 - 16 = 4W
44 = 4W
11 = W

? = L
