Question

Mr. Richards garden is shaped like a rectangle. The length of garden is 10 meters more than twice the width. What expression represents the length in meters of a fence needed to fully surround garden​

Answer 1

The expression for length of fence in meters is: 6w+20 meters

Explanation:

Let l be the length and w be the width of the given garden

Then according to given statements

`l = 2w+10` Eqn 1

As we have to find the length of fence to fully surround garden that means the perimeter has to be found.

The formula for perimeter is given by:

`P = 2(length+width)`

Putting the values

`P = 2(2w+10+w)\\P = 2(3w+10)\\P = 6w+20`

Hence,

The expression for length of fence in meters is: 6w+20 meters
