the answer C
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:

Bases are equal. So, compare powers
2x - 1 = 3
Add 1 to both sides,
2x = 3+1
2x = 4
Divide both sides by 2
x = 4/2
x = 2
Given width is 24 less than length.
W=L-24
Perimeter = 2(W+L)=2(L-24+L)=4L-48
But we're also given perimeter = 172'
Therefore 4L-48=172
solve for L
4L=172+48=220
L=55'
W=55-24 = 31'
Check: Perimeter = 2(W+L)=2(31+55)=2*86=172' good!
Answer: The dimensions of the garden are 31' * 55'
