The organic garden at a restaurant is rectangular in shape and has a perimeter of 84 feet. If the length of the garden is 24 ft longer than the width of the garden what is the area of the garden in sq ft

297 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the width of the garden.

Since the length is 24 ft longer than the width, it can be represented by w + 24.

Use the perimeter formula, p = 2l + 2w. Plug in the perimeter and w + 24 as l, then solve for w:

p = 2l + 2w

84 = 2(w + 24) + 2w

84 = 2w + 48 + 2w

84 = 4w + 48

36 = 4w

9 = w

So, the width is 9 ft. Add 24 to this to find the length:

24 + 9 = 33

So, the length is 33 ft.

Find the area of the garden with the formula A = lw:

A = lw

A = (33)(9)

A = 297

The area of the garden is 297 square feet.
