A new youth sports center is being built in madison. the perimeter of the rectangular playing field is 460 yards. the length of the field is 6 yards less than triple the width. what are the dimensions of the playing​ field?

Respuesta :

Let the width be w.
Length = 3w - 6

Perimeter = 460
w + w + 3w - 6 + 3w - 6 = 460
8w - 12 = 460
8w = 472
w = 59

Width = w = 59 yards
Length = 3w - 6 = 3(59) - 6 = 171 yards

Answer: Length = 171 yards and Width = 59 yards
