Question

A rectangle garden has a length that is six feet more than twice it’s width. It takes 120 feet of fencing to completely enclose the garden’s area. What equation could be used to find the width of the garden ?

Answer 1

Answer:

      3w = 54

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the garden be w

Length = 2w + 6

Perimeter = 120 feet

2* (length + Width) = 120

2*(2w + 6 + w) = 120

       3w + 6    = 120/2

       3w + 6    = 60

              3w = 60 - 6

              3w = 54
