notice the picture included, thus


\bf Area=A=length\cdot width \begin{cases} length = L\\ width = W=L-10\\ Area = A = 92 \end{cases} \\\\ 92=L(L-10)\impliedby \textit{solve for

what's the width? well, W = L - 10

The width would be 41 inches and the length would be 51 inches. They both add up to 92 and the length is ten inches more!
