A rectangular flower garden in Samantha's backyard has 260 feet around its edge. The width of the garden is 60 feet. What is the
artcher [175]

Answer:

length of the garden = 65 ft

Explanation:

The rectangular flower garden has 260 ft around it edges . The width of this rectangular garden is 60 ft . The length of the garden in ft is unknown.

The 260 ft around the edges of the garden is the perimeter of the garden. The perimeter of a rectangular shape is expressed as follows.

perimeter = 2L + 2W

perimeter = 2(L + W)

where

L = length

W = width

perimeter = 2(L + W)

perimeter = 260 ft

length = ?

width = 60 ft

260 = 2(L + 60)

260 = 2L + 130

260 - 130 = 2L

2L = 130

divide both sides by 2

L = 130/2

L = 65 ft

length of the garden  = 65 ft

During the editing process, look for and eliminate short sentences. strong verbs. clichés. specifics.
Luba_88 [7]

During the editing process, look for and eliminate clichés. A cliché is a a saying or remark that is very often made and is therefore not original and not interesting:

A cliché is a part of an artistic work, a phrase, or a concept that has been overused to the point where it has lost its original meaning or effect, even to the point of being banal or irritating, especially when at one point in time it was thought to be profound or innovative. In phraseology, the phrase now has a more technical meaning and refers to a phrase that has been imposed by standardized language practice.

The phrase is frequently used in contemporary society to describe a concept or action that is predictable or predicted as a result of a previous occurrence. "Clichés" are frequently disparaging and may or may not be true. Some are simple truisms and facts, while others are stereotypical beliefs.  In fiction, clichés are frequently used for humorous effect.
