Question

Sharai planted a rectangular garden with a perimeter of 100 feet. The length of the garden is 10 feet shorter than the width.

This can be represented as 100 = 4x - 20

What does the x represent?
(1 Point)
Perimeter
Length
Width
Base

Answer 1

Width

Explanation:

As you need two widths and two lengths and as the length is shorter than the width by 10 it is - 20 to account for that. if the x was the length then it would add 20 instead
