The perimeter of a rectangular playing field is 280 feet. The length of the field is 20 feet more than the width. What are the dimensions of the playing field? (You need to find the length and the width.)

L =80

w=60

Step-by-step explanation:

P =280

L =w +20

=>L +w=280 :2 =140

w+20+w=140

2w=140 - 20

2w =120

w=120 :2 =60

L=60 +20 =80

P =2L +2w

P =2 ×80 +2 ×60

P=160 +120

P=280
