The garden's length (1) is eight feet longer than the width (w). If the
perimeter is 40 feet, choose the best equation for the
situation.

A. 4w + 16 = 40
B. (w+8)(w) = 40
C 4w + 8 = 40

Respuesta :

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

A) [tex]4W + 16 = 40[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the Garden is 'L'

Width of the garden is 'W'

According to the given statement:

Length(L) =Width(W)+8

Perimeter of the garden= 2(Length+Width)

         [tex]40=2(L+W)\\\\40=2((W+8)+W)\\\\40=2(2W+8)\\\\40=4W+16[/tex]

So, [tex]4W + 16 = 40[/tex] is the equation for the situation.
