Answer:

The length of the fence needed to surround this garden is 188 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A fence is guarding off a vegetable garden in the form of a rectangle. It has one side that is 10 m greater than the other side.

To find : The length of the fence needed to surround this garden if the area of the vegetable garden is 2184 m² ?

Solution :

Let the one side of rectangle be 'x'.

Then the other side is 'x+10'.

The area of the rectangle is 2184 m²,

i.e. x(x+10)=2184

x^2+10x-2184=0

Solve by middle term split,

x^2+52x-42x-2184=0

x(x+52)-42(x+52)=0

(x+52)(x-42)=0

x=-52,42

Reject negative value,

The side of the rectangle is 42 m.

The other side is 42+10=52 m

The perimeter of the rectangle is P=2(l+b)

P=2(42+52)

P=2(94)

P=188

Therefore, the length of the fence needed to surround this garden is 188 meter.
