1. A rectangular garden is fenced on all sides with 200 feet of fencing. The garden is 2 feet longer
than it is wide. What is the width of the garden?
(1 Point)
54 feet
49 feet
60 feet
51 feet

Respuesta :

Answer:

49 feet

Explanation:

If we turn this into an equation, we know that the perimeter of the fence, or P, is going to equal 2 times the width, x, and 2 times the length. We also know that the length is equal to the width+2, making the equation P=2x+2(x+2). Since the total perimeter of fencing is equal to 200 feet, we can change this equation to 200=2x+2(x+2). Then you can just solve the equation for the answer.
