Question 1092552: The length of a rectangular garden is 9 feet longer than its width. If the garden's perimeter is 206 feet, what is the area of the garden in square feet? Answer by jorel1380(3719) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let w be the width of the garden, and w+9 be its' length. Then:
2w+2(w+9)=206
4w=188
w=47; w+9=56
Solve for area
