The length of a rectangular garden is 9 feet longer than its width. If the garden’s perimeter is 182 feet, what is the area of the garden in square feet? (please show all work)

Respuesta :

Answer:

1660.75 square feet

Step-by-step explanation.

Width=x

Length =x+9

((x)+(x+9))×2=182 feet

(2x+9)×2=182

18+4x=164

x=36.5

Width=36.5 feet

Length=45.5 feet

Area=36.5×45.5

=1660.75 square feet
