Question

Genni has a rectangular garden with a length of 3x+4 and a width of 6x-10.

Write an expression for the total perimeter in terms of x.
6x+8
Genni measured the perimeter to be 42 feet. What is the value of x? Enter a number only in the
box below.
feet
What is the area of the garden? Enter a number ons in the box below.
square feet

Answer 1

The total perimeter is 3x + 4 + 3x + 4 + 6x - 10 + 6x - 10 = 18x - 12

This means 18x - 12 = 42

18x = 54

x = 3

This means the side lengths are 13 and 8.

The area would be 13 * 8 = 104

Answer 2

equation in terms of x is 18x - 12

x = 3

area = 104 sq. feet

you want only the ans right?

if you need explaination comment down.

GOOD LUCK FOR THE FUTURE! :)
