L= 2w -40
2L + 2w = P = 2080
L + 2w = 1040
L = 1040 -2w = 2w -40
4w =1080
w = 1080/4 = 270 feet wide
L = 2(270) -40 = 540 -40= 500 feet Long

asked 10/19/20Rancher has to put in new pasture fence, but, he has 2080 yards of fencing, & because of restrictions caused by shape of his land, the area must be rectangular w/the length 40 yards less than twice the width. Find dimensions of grazing area.
