Answer:

Length of the garden = 10 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a garden = 2(length + width)

Perimeter of the garden = 32 ft

Width of the garden = 6 ft

Length of the garden = x ft

Perimeter of a garden = 2(length + width)

32 = 2 ( x + 6 )

Open parenthesis

32 = 2x + 12

Subtract 12 from both sides

32 - 12 = 2x + 12 - 12

20 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2

20 / 2 = 2x / 2

10 = x

x = 10 ft

Therefore, length of the garden = x = 10 ft

False.

For the first part, 4(3 + 5) needs to be added first so its 4 * 8. This is 32 - 10.

The second part will have 4 * 3 which is 12 + 5 which is 17. Finally subtract 10 and its 7.

And 22 is not equal to 7

if the diameter is 4 units, then its radius is half that, or 2.

$\bf \textit{area of a circle}\\\\ A=\pi r^2~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\ \cline{1-1} r= 2 \end{cases}\implies A=\pi 2^2\implies A=4\pi \implies \stackrel{\pi =3.14~\hfill }{A\approx 12.57}$
