Answer:

A.

[tex]24w=1,560[/tex]

B.

[tex]\text{Width}=w=65\ feet\\ \\\text{Length}=11w=715\ feet[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w feet be the width of the field. A rectangular field is eleven times as long as it is wide, then the length of the field is 11w feet.

A. The perimeter of the field is

[tex]\text{Perimeter}=2(\text{Widht}+\text{Length})\\ \\\text{Perimeter}=2(w+11w)=2\cdot 12w=24w[/tex]

If the perimeter of the field is 1,560 feet, then

[tex]24w=1,560[/tex]

B. Solve this equation:

[tex]w=\dfrac{1,560}{24}\\ \\\text{Width}=w=65\ feet\\ \\\text{Length}=11w=715\ feet[/tex]
