Answer:

I think that the answer would be: 7 feet. I'm not sure though.

Explanation:

The formula to finding the area is: length x width

And we already know two parts of that formula.

  1. the area: is 84 feet squared
  2. the width: is 12 feet

Now, all we have to find is the length/height. To do this, we can use the formula.

AREA=LENGTH/HEIGHT x WIDTH

Just substitute the information we have and........

84 = length x 12

-DIVIDE BY 12 ON BOTH SIDES-

7 = length

Done! Now you have your length as 7 feet. I hope this is correct and help you.
