Answer:
Perimeter is the sum of all sides added together.
Variables:
P=88
L=W+16
W=?
Equation:
88=2*(W+16+W)
Write with units:
L=30 ft.
W= 14ft.
Explanation:
88=2*(W+16+W)
divide both sides by 2
44=W+16+W (This is one width and one length)
combine like terms
44=2W+16
subtract 16 from both sides
28=2W
divide both sides by 2
14=W
Your width is 14
Your length is 16 more than your width.
14+16=L
30=L
