The perimeter of his original garden is 30 feet and the length is 11 feet.What will be the perimeter in feet of his new garden?
let x= width of original garden
2*11+2x=perimeter of original garden=30
2x=30-22=8
x=4
2x=8=width of new garden
3*11=33=length of new garden
2*8*+2*33=16+66=82 ft=perimeter of new garden
