The perimeter of a rectangular garden is 710ft. The two long sides of a garden are each 310 ft long. You are asked to find the length of the other sides. Which equation models this situation.
P=710ft Side AB=310 ft Side DC=310 ft Side AD=side BC P of rectangle is AB+DC+AD+BC 710=310+310+2AD 710=620+2AD 710-620=620+2AD-620 90=2AD 90/2=2AD/2 45=AD Both sides are parallel so they are same So other 2 sides are 45ft each.
