Answer:

The length of the path is [tex]120\ ft[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the length of the path

we know that

[tex]55\%=\frac{55}{100}=0.55[/tex]

[tex]0.55x=66[/tex] -----> linear equation that represent the situation

solve for x

Divide by [tex]0.55[/tex] both sides

[tex]0.55x/0.55=66/0.55[/tex]

[tex]x=120\ ft[/tex]
