Answer:


\displaystyle 15\:feet\:wide \\ 32\:feet\:long

Explanation:

{2 + 2w = l

{94 = 2w + 2l

94 = 2w + 2[2 + 2w]

94 = 2w + 4 + 4w

94 = 4 + 6w

- 4 - 4

_________


\displaystyle (90)/(6) = (6w)/(6)


\displaystyle 15 = w[Plug this back into both equations above to get the length of 32 feet];
\displaystyle 32 = l

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
