The length of a rectangular garden is 6 more than its width. If the perimeter is 32 feet, what is the width and the area of the

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

${\fbox{ \sf{Width \: of \: a \: rectangular \: garden \: = 5 \: feet}}}$

$\boxed{ \sf{ \: Area \: of \: a \: rectangular \: garden = 55 {ft}^{2}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\star$ Let the width of a rectangular garden be 'w'

$\star$ Length of a rectangular garden = 6 + w

$\star$ Perimeter of a rectangular garden = 32 feet

 $\longrightarrow$ Finding the width of a rectangular garden :

$\boxed{ \sf{ \: Perimeter \: of \: a \: rectangle \: = \: 2(length + width}}$

$\mapsto{ \text{32 = 2(6 + w + w)}}$

$\text{Step \: 1 \: : Collect \: like \: terms}$

Like terms are those which have the same base

$\mapsto{ \text{32 = 2(6 + 2w) }}$

$\text{Step \: 2 \: : Distribute \: 2 \: through \: the \: parentheses}$

$\mapsto{ \text{32 = 12 + 4w}}$

$\text{Step \: 3 \: : Swap \: the \: sides \: of \: the \: equation}$

$\mapsto{ \text{4w + 12 = 32}}$

$\text{Step \: 4 \: : Move \: 12 \: to \: right \: hand \: side \: and \: change \: its \: sign}$

$\mapsto{ \text{4w = 32 - 12}}$

$\text{Step \: 5 \: : Subtract \: 12 \: from \: 32}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{4w = 20}}$

$\text{Step \: 6 \: : Divide \: both \: sides \: by \: 4}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{ \frac{4w}{4} = \frac{20}{4}}}$

$\text{Step \: 7 \: : Calculate}$

$\mapsto{ \text{w = 5}}$

Width of a rectangular garden = 5 feet

$\longrightarrow$ Substituting / Replacing the value of w in 6 + w in order to find the length of a rectangular garden

$\mapsto{ \sf{Length = 6 + w = 6 + 5 = \bold{11 \: feet} }}$

$\longrightarrow$ Finding the area of a rectangular garden having length of 11 feet and width of 5 feet :

$\boxed{ \sf{Area \: of \: a \: rectangle = length \:∗ \: width}}$

$\mapsto{ \text{Area \: = \: 11 \: ∗ \: 5}}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{Area \: = 55 \: {ft}^{2} }}$

Area of a rectangular garden = 55 ft²

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

Is this question a statistical question Which student spends the most time playing musical instruments? explain why or why not

Cloud [144]

Statistical questions are questions that are answered by collecting variable data, which can be given as an average/range/percentage. This question has a single answer, and therefore it is not a statistical question. A statistical question would be, for example, What is the average amount of time students in this class spend playing musical instruments?

Using coupons, you spend $135 grocery shopping. this is 75% of the total retail price of the groceries. how much would you have

Usimov [2.4K]

Let x be the total price. And you paid 75% of it which is $135.

x * 75/100 = 135
x = 180
You would have paid $180 if you had not used coupons.
