A certain field is a rectangle with a perimeter of 1008 feet. the length is 166 feet more than the width. find the width and length of the rectangular field.

L + W + L + W = 1,008 feet

A) 2L + 2W = 1,008 feet

B) L = W + 166

Multiplying Equation B by - 2

B) - 2L = - 2W - 332

B) - 2L + 2W = - 332 then adding equation A

A) 2L + 2W = 1,008 feet

4W = 676

Width = 169

Length = 169 + 166 = 335
