A gardens length (l) is five feet longer than the width (w). if the perimeter is 38 feet, choose the best equation for the situation. 4w+10 = 38 4w+5 = 38 (w+5)(w)=38. I believe it is B, but i am just double checking.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

itd be c. its confusing but trust me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why the second w?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because the w by itself is the width. the w+5 represents the length being 5 ft more than the width
