Determining Dimensions and Perimeter for Fencing a Rectangular Pet AreaCongratulations, you have just purchased your first house. Unfortunately, the builder forgot toput a fence around the property and you must now put a fence up so that you can let your pet outin the backyard, without fear of it running away.You want to fence in a rectangular area, butfirst you must determine the dimensions of the area.Different pets need to have different areas. For example, a horse needs more space than a dog.Determine an area that is appropriate for your pet.1.Define the shape of the rectangular area by establishing a relationship between the length andwidth of the rectangle. For example, L = 2W + 5, or W = 3L–4. Be sure to include theappropriate units (inches, feet, yards, miles, or meters).Answer:To solve this problem, you need to first define a relationship between the length (L) andwidth (W) of the rectangular area you wish to fence. The goal is to have an area large enough foryour pet but not excessively large.Step 1: Defining the relationship between length and widthLet's assume that thelength (L)of the rectangle is3 feet more than twicethe width of therectangle.This can be written as:L=2W+3L = 2W + 3Where:•LL is the length of the rectangular area (in feet),
