Question

The perimeter of regulation singles tennis court is 210 feet and the length is 57 feet less than 5 times the width. What are the dimensions of the court

Answer 1

width= 27 ft, length=78 ft

Explanation:

P=2l+2w

210=2l+2w

Divide by 2

105=l+w

l=5w-57

Substitute for l

105=6w-57

6w=162

w=27

l=5(27)-57

=135-27

l=78
