Question

find the dimensions of a rectangular garden with perimeter 62 yd and area 220 yd^2

Answer 1

Its a system of equation. Perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width)
Area = (length) * (width)

Answer 2

set the Perimeter = to 62 and the area = to 220

Answer 3

i really just need a step by step to get the answer i dont get it whatsoever

Answer 4

b*h = 220
2b+2h = 62

b = 31-h

substitution
(31-h)*h = 220

h^2-31h+220 = 0

quadratic

h = 11, 20
b = 20, 11

Answer 5

so dimensions are 11x20
