Answer:
[tex]l = 3\,ft[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
La ecuación de perímetro del tapete es (The equation of perimeter of the carpet is):
[tex]p = 2\cdot (w + l)[/tex]
Donde (Where):
[tex]w[/tex] - Ancho (Width)
[tex]l[/tex] - Longitud (Length)
La longitud se determina por despeje (The length is determined by clearing it):
[tex]l = \frac{p}{2} - w[/tex]
[tex]l = \frac{16\,ft}{2} - 5\,ft[/tex]
[tex]l = 3\,ft[/tex]
