Hello!
So, we know that the length of the rectangular basketball court is 84 ft, and the width is 50 ft.
The formula for perimeter of a rectangle is:
P = 2l + 2w
This means that we need to multiply the length by two and the width by two as well.
Substitute:
P = 2(84) + 2(50)
P = 168 + 100
P = 268 ft
ANSWER:
The perimeter of the basketball court is 268 feet long.
