Answer:

  • L = 90 yards
  • W = 60 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is ...

  P = 2(L+W)

If the length is 30 yards more than the width, we can use L = W+30 and substitute known values into the above formula:

  300 = 2((W+30) +W)

  150 = 2W +30 . . . . . divide by 2 and collect terms

  120 = 2W . . . . . . . . . subtract 30

  60 = W . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

  60+30 = L = 90

The length is 90 yards; the width is 60 yards.
