Problema Solution
The perimeter of Glenn's backyard is 164 yards. If the length of the yard is two less than three times the width, what are the dimensions of Glenn's yard?
Answer provided by our tutors
The length is (3x-2) and width is x
So
2(3x-2)+2x = 164
x = 21
So the length is 61 yards and width is 21 yards
