Answer:

The Erie Canal connected the Great Lakes with New York City.

Explanation:

The Erie Canal is an artificial waterway located in the state of New York. It is 363 miles long and runs from Albany on the Hudson River to Buffalo on Lake Erie, creating a navigable waterway from the Great Lakes to the Atlantic Ocean.

The construction of the canal was first presented in 1808. From 1817 to 1832 the construction itself took place and on 26 October 1825 it was officially opened. It was the first transport system between the East Coast (New York) and the West Inland (Great Lakes), during which there was no need for transhipment. In addition, shipping was faster than animal-drawn vehicles and transport costs were also reduced by around 95%. The channel contributed to the arrival of new settlers in the western areas of New York State, opened the areas further west for future colonization, and helped New York become America's main port. Between 1834 and 1862 it was further expanded and in 1918 the original building was replaced by a larger canal called the New York State Barge Canal.

6. The original length, L, and original width, W. of a rectangular garden are BOTH increased by 3 feet each.
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

A rectangle is a two-dimensional quadrilateral.

The area is given as:

      Area of a rectangle  = length x width

     Perimeter = 2(L+ W)

where L is the length and W is the width

Condition:

If L and W are increased by 3 feet each;

      New length  = L + 3

      New width  = W + 3

Area of new rectangle;

                   Area  = (L + 3) x (W + 3)

                             = LW + 3L + 3W + 9

                                     

Perimeter of new rectangle;

                    Perimeter = 2(L+3 + W + 3)

                                       = 2(L+W +6)
