The width of the garden is 10 feet, if the perimeter of the garden is 64 feet and the width of the garden is 12 feet less than the length.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

Shape of garden is rectangular

Perimeter of garden - 64 feet

Width of the garden is 12 feet less than the length.

Step: 1

Formula to calculate the perimeter of the rectangle,

P = 2(l+w) ........................(1)

Where, l - Length of rectangle

w - Width of rectangle

Step: 2

From the given data,

Let, x = Length of the garden

P = 64 feet

w = x - 12 feet

Equation (1) becomes,

64 = 2 ( x + (x - 12) )

$\frac{64}{2}$ = ( x + x - 12 )

32 = ( 2x - 12 )

32 + 12 = 2x

44 = 2x

$x = \frac{44}{2}$

l = x = 22 feet

width, w = x - 12 = 22 - 12

w = 10 feet

Step: 3

Check for solution,

64 = 2 ( 12 + 22 )

= 2 (32)

64 = 64

Result:

The width of the garden is 10 feet, if the perimeter of the garden is 64 feet and the width of the garden is 12 feet less than the length.

Answer from: Quest

answer: the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.

step-by-step explanation:

the given rate of interest i= 85%

in calculating the monthly payment for a loan with an interest rate compounded monthly, the value of the interest rate per period we use in the formula must be in decimal form.

to convert it in decimal, we divide it by 100, we get

$i=\frac{85}{100}=0.85$

hence, the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.
