Answer: length = 28 feet

Width = 16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the length of the rectangular garden.

Let W represent the width of the rectangular garden.

The formula for determining the perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as

Perimeter = 2(L + W)

The perimeter of a garden is 88 feet. This means that

2(L + W) = 88

Dividing through by 2, it becomes

L + W = 44 - - - - - - - - - - - -1

The length is 12 feet greater than the width. This means that

L = W + 12

Substituting L = W + 12 into equation 1, it becomes

W + 12 + W = 44

2W + 12 = 44

2W = 44 - 12

2W = 32

W = 32/2

W = 16

L = W + 12 = 16 + 12

L = 28

What is the leading coefficient of the polynomial function? <br><br> y=-x^4+4x^2
attashe74 [19]
<h3>Answer:  -1</h3>

Explanation:

The given equation is the same as y = -1x^4+4x^2

The leading term is the term with the largest exponent, so it's -1x^4

The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the leading term.

In short, we circle the first coefficient we see. This is assuming that the polynomial is in standard form where the exponents decrease when going from left to right.
