Question

A garden pond is 6 feet wide. The perimeter of the pond is 28 feet.

What is the area of the pond?

Answer 1

48 feet squared

Answer 2

what is shape of pond?

Answer 3

We know one of the lengths of the pond is 6 feet. If the perimeter is 28 feet then the other length is 8 feet. Therefore the area of the pond is 6 x 8 = 48 ft^2

Answer 4

what?

Answer 5

tmmo hlp plz what do you mean

Answer 6

If the pond is 6 ft wide and the perimeter of the pond is 28 square ft, then what is the length?

Answer 7

i assume its a rectangle pond - so p=L+L+W+W
so 28-6-6=1
then 16/2=your length

Answer 8

so then to get area A=LW
so A=8*6

Answer 9

What she said!

Answer 10

im a fourth grader im not in high school i don understand

Answer 11

hlp plz

Answer 12

okay so your perimeter is 28 ft

Answer 13

the width is 6 ft

the formula to get perimeter is length+length+width+width

Answer 14

ok so... whats the answer

Answer 15

so

length+length+6+6=28

Answer 16

what is 6+6=?

Answer 17

so whats the area

Answer 18

if one side is 6 feet then you have to multiply it by 2 to represent the other side. then you subtract 12 from 28 because 6 times 2 is 12. 28-12 is 16 so you would divide that in half to find the length of the other 2 sides. 16 divided by 2 is 8. now that you have your width and length measurements you have to multiply them to find the area. 6 times 8 is 48 so your area would be 48 feet squared.
