Answer:

The length of the garden is 33 feet and the width of the garden is 4 feet.                                        

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in he question:

Perimeter of rectangular garden = 74 feet

Let l be the length of the garden and w be the width.

The length of the garden is 9 feet more than 6 times the width.

Thus, we can write

l = 9 + 6w\\\Rightarrow l-6w = 9

Perimeter of rectangular garden =

2(l + w) = 74\\\Rightarrow l+w = 37

Solving the two equation by elimination method, we get,

l-6w-(l+w) = 9 -37\\-7w = -28\\w = 4\\l = 9 + 6(4) = 33

Thus, the length of the garden is 33 feet and the width of the garden is 4 feet.
