Here you're being asked to find the "perimeter" of the space, even tho' the problem doesn't specifically ask for it.
The formula for P is P = 2W + 2L.
Here the width, W, is 3 1/2 yds, and the length, L, is 4 2/3 yds. Subbing these two values into the formula for P (above) results in:
P = 2(3 1/2 yds) + 2(4 2/3 yds)
= 7 yds + 9 1/3 yds = 16 1/3 yds, total.
Answer:
2x^2 + x - 6 = rectangular garden: <u><em>length = 2x – 3 feet; width = x + 2 feet</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
(2x - 3)(x + 2) = 2x^2 + x - 6 =
2x^2 + 4x - 3x - 6 = 2x^2 + x - 6 =
2x^2 + x - 6
You get the original equation from the two sides multiplied. :)
Hope this helps, have a good day.
