Arectangular garden has a perimeter of 172 feet. the length of the garden is 24 feet more than the width. what are the dimensions of the garden? (recall the formula p = 2l + 2w.)

Perimeter of a rectangle is given by:

       .....[1]

where

P is the perimeter of a rectangle

L is the length of the rectangle

W is the width of the rectangle.

As per the statement:

A rectangular garden has a perimeter of 172 feet.

⇒P = 172 feet

It is also given that:

The length of the garden is 24 feet more than the width.

⇒

Substitute the given values in [1] we have;

Combine like terms;

Divide both sides by 2 we have;

Subtract 24 from both sides we have;

Divide both sides by 2 we get;

31 feet = W

Then;

feet.

therefore, the dimension of the garden are:

feet and W = 31 feet

step-by-step explanation:

b

step-by-step explanation:

a difference is the result of subtraction. while each of these expressions has subtraction in it, a difference will be the result when subtraction is the last operation applied in the order of operations for the expression. this means subtraction must be outside of the parenthesis. only b has this.
