Question

You are building a flower bed with a perimeter of 16 feet. The length of the bed is 4 feet longer than the width. What are the dimensions ?

Answer 1

Explanation:

The perimeter is basically the outline of the shape. The perimeter of a rectangle is given by P=2l+2w, where l is the length and w is the width. Thus, the perimeter of the flower bed would be given by P=2(3n5o)+2(5n5o).
