The length and width of the fence should be made 76.25 feet and 23.75 feet respectively. Also, the expression for the length is L = 3W + 5 and the perimeter is P = 2(4W + 5).
How to determine the fence's dimension?
Mathematically, the perimeter of a rectangle can be calculated by using this formula;
P = 2(L + W)
Where:
- P is the perimeter of a rectangle.
- L is the length of a rectangle.
- W is the width of a rectangle.
Since the length of this fence is 5 more than 3 times the width, we have:
L = 3W + 5
Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;
200 = 2(3W + 5 + W)
200 = 2(4W + 5)
200 = 8W + 10
8W = 190
W = 190/8
W = 23.75 feet.
For the length, we have:
L = 3W + 5
L = 3(23.75) + 5
L = 76.25 feet.
