Question

Julia planet a rectangle garden that is 20 feet long she plays 56 feet of fencing around her Garten what is the width of her Garten what is the area

Answer 1

The width of rectangular garden(b) = 8 feet and

The area of rectangular garden = 160 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The length of rectangular garden(l) = 20 feet and

The perimeter of rectangular garden(fencing) = 56 feet

To find, the width of rectangular garden(b) = ? and

The area of rectangular garden = ?

We know that,

The area of rectangular garden = 2(l + b)

⇒  2(20 + b) = 56

⇒  20 + b = 28

⇒ b = 28 - 20 = 8 feet

The width of rectangular garden(b) = 8 feet

∴ The area of rectangular garden = l × b

=  20 feet × 8 feet

= 160 square feet

Hence, the width of rectangular garden(b) = 8 feet and

the area of rectangular garden = 160 square feet
