Question

Don is digging a vegetable garden in his backyard. he wants the area of the garden to be 120 square feet. he also wants the length of the garden to be more than 12 feet. which of the statements below would accurately apply to the width?

Answer 1

the question does not present the options, but this does not interfere with the resolution

let

x-------> the length of the garden

y-------> the width of the garden

A-------> Area of the garden

we know that

A=x*y

A=120 ft²

for x=12 ft

120=12*y-----------------> y=10 ft

but

the length of the garden to be more than 12 feet
so

x > 12 ft

therefore

y < 10 ft

Hence

the answer is

The width of the garden must be less than 10 ft  (width < 10 ft)
