Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

width = 40 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

If w = width, then l = 19 + w

l = 19 + w

2l + 2w = 198

"Substitute 19 + w as l in the second equation"

2(19 + w) + 2w = 198,

38 + 2w + 2w = 198,

38 + 4w = 198,

4w = 198 - 38 = 160,

w = 160/4 = 40 feet

=> Solution: width = 40 feet
