    45ft by 22ft

    Step-by-step explanation:

    perimeter is 2L+2W = 134ft

    The coach says that 378=4L+9W

    We can rearrange the first equation to get L=67-W, then solve by substitution.

    378=4 (67-W) + 9W=268+5W

    110=5W so W=22

    L=67-W and W=22 so

    L=67-22=44

    Therefore the dimensions are 22 by 45
