a park is enclosed with a fence that is 82 feet long. the length of the park is 24 feet. what is the width of the park

17 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter would thus be 82, as the fence is enclosing the park, and perimeter formula is : 2 * length + 2 * width, so 82 = 2*length + 2*width

So given the length is 24 feet, plug it into the perimeter formula assuming width = x, to get:

82 = 2*24 + 2x,

82 = 48 + 2x,

34 = 2x,

x = 17 feet, the answer
