We are given:

There seems to be nothing I can do to simplify this equation. However, I can factor out an
since they both have at least an
. Here is what we get:

This is in the simplest form I can get into. I cannot do anything more to simplify this expression. This is your final answer.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Garden A</h3>
<u>Rectangle with sides</u>
- Width ⇒ 2x - 3 feet
- Length ⇒ 5(2x - 3) = 10x - 15
<u>Perimeter is</u>
- 2(w + l) = 2( 2x - 3 + 10x - 15) = 24x - 36
<h3>Garden B</h3>
<u>Triangle with sides</u>
<u>Perimeter is</u>
- 5x + 5 + 4x + 2 + 8x - 8 = 17x - 1
<h3>Statement 3</h3>
<u>The difference in perimeters is the difference is fencing:</u>
- 24x - 36 - (17x - 1) = 24x - 17x - 36 + 1 = 7x - 35
Since it is different from 7x - 37 the statement is FALSE
<h3>Statement 4</h3>
Garden A is surrounded by a path of 2.5 ft wide
It will have the perimeter added by 2.5*2*4 = 20 ft as each side is extended by 2*2.5 ft = 5ft
<u>So the perimeter is going to be:</u>
This statement is TRUE
A is addition
b is subtraction
c is division
