Craig has 72 feet of material to build a fence around a rectangular flower bed on his property. If the width of the fence must be 3 feet, what is the length of the fence in yards if he uses all 72 feet of material

Respuesta :

Answer:

33 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2*width + 2*length.

So here we have:

2*3 + 2*L = 72  where L = the length.

2L = 72 - 6 = 66

L = 33 feet.

Answer:

33

Step-by-step explanation:

with=3

length=x

perimeter=72

                                            so 3*2+x*2=72

                                                 6+2x=72

                                                 2x=72-6=66

                                                  x=66/2

                                                   x= 33
