Answer:

Length = 37 feet

width = 11 feet

Explanation:

First, let us find the value of x.

They've already given that the perimeter of this rectangle is 96 feet.

So,

4x - 7 + 4x - 7 + x + x = 96

10x - 14 = 96

10x = 96 + 14

10x = 110

Divide both sides by x.

x = 11 feet

And now we can find the value of the width and length.

Given that,

Length = ( 4x - 7 ) ⇒ ( 4 × 11 - 7 )

44 - 7

37 feet

Width = x ⇒ 11 feet

Let me know if you have any other questions :-)
