Answer:

The width of the garden is 25 feet

The length of the garden is 60 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle

= P = 2L + 2W

Where L = Length, W = Width

The length of the garden is 10 feet more than twice its width.

P = 170

L = 2W + 10

Hence,

170 = 2(2W + 10) + 2W

170 = 4W + 20 + 2W

Collect like terms

170 - 20 = 6W

150 = 6W

W = 150/6

W = 25 feet

The width of the garden is 25 feet

Remember

L = 2W + 10

L = 2(25) + 10

L = 50 + 10

L = 60 feet

The length of the garden is 60 feet

What is the value of x? 68 32 54 36

Dovator [93]

Answer:

A) 68

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Exterior Angle Theorem.

The Exterior Angle theorem states that the exterior angle's measurement will be equal that of the two opposite interior angles.

Set the equation. Note that you are given the exterior angle and one interior angle:

58 + x = 126

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Subtract 58 from both sides of the equation:

x + 58 (-58) = 126 (-58)

x = 126 - 58

x = 68

A) 68 is your answer.
