Answer:

<h2><em><u>124</u></em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>Given</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>

Perimeter of fencing bought by Claire for rectangular garden

= 2(4x - 4 + x - 4)

= 2 ( 5x - 8 )

= 10x - 16

Perimeter of fencing bought by Claire for triangular garden

= (3x - 1) + (3x - 1) + 3x

= 3x + 3x + 3x - 1 - 1

= 9x - 2

<em><u>Since</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>

The two gardens have same perimeter,

<em><u>By</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>the</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>problem</u></em><em><u>,</u></em><em><u> </u></em>

10x - 16 = 9x - 2

=> 10x - 9x = 16 - 2

=> x = 14

<em><u>Hence</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>

<em><u>Feet</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>of</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>fencing</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>bought</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>by</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>her</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>

Putting value in any of the perimeters of the gardens,

10x - 16

= 10(14) - 16

= 140 - 16

= <em><u>124 feet (Ans)</u></em>

PLEASE ANSWER QUICKLY: SURFACE AREA<br><br> If you don't know the answer please don't guess.
dusya [7]
Well for one, the floor and the ceiling do not need wallpaper.  So you would only find the surface area each side.  (48, 48, 80, 80)  Then you would add all four together. (256ft squared)

The answer is 'C.'
