    Perimeter = (Length + Width) x2

    Area = LengthxWidth

    P = (L+W) x2

    P/2=L+W

    L=P/2 - W

    Area = (P/2 - W) (W)

    A=WP/2-W^2

    105=W (44) / 2 - W^2

    105=22W - W^2

    W^2-22W+105=0

    (W-7) (W-15) = 0

    Width = 7 or 15

    A=LxW

    105=Lx7

    105/7=L

    L=15

    Length is 15 inches, Width is 7 inches.
