    74 = 2l+2w

    l=4w-3

    Substitute the l value

    74 = 2 (4w-3) + 2w

    74 = 8w-6+2w

    74=10w-6

    80=10w

    8=w

    Final answer: 8 ft

    To check, find length and plug values in

    l = 4w-3

    l=4 (8) - 3

    l=32-3

    l=29

    74=2 (29) + 2 (8)

    True

    29 = 4 (8) - 3

    True
