The herbology garden is rectangular with a perimeter of 32 feet. the length of the garden is 4 feet less than three times the width. find the length of the garden. enter a number only as your answer.

The perimeter formula here is P = 2W + 2L.

In this situation   P = 32 ft = 2(3W-4) + 2W, or   32 ft = 6W - 8 + 2W, or

                                                                             32 ft = 8W - 8.

Solve this for W by adding 8 to both sides of the equation:

40 ft = 8W.    Then W = 5 ft, and L = 3(5 ft) - 4 ft = 11 ft.

Note that P = 2(5 ft) + 2(11 ft) comes out to (10 + 22) ft, or 32 ft, as was given.

answer: a

step-by-step explanation:

if gloria has "carry over" minutes, (that is, any minutes paid for but not used in a month can be applied to her payment for minutes in the next month,) her total usage for the three months is: total minutes = 320 + 243 + 489 = 1052 minutes number of 200 minute blocks = 1052/200 = 5 r52 (that is 5 with a remainder of 52) rounding up the number of 200 minute blocks gives her usage for the three months as 6 blocks. the cost for six blocks is 6 x $25 = $150 she also has 200 - 52 or 148 carry over minutes if gloria pays each month and unused minutes are lost, applying the rounding up procedure to each month gives: first month usage of 320 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 second month usage of 243 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 third month usage of 489 minutes rounds up to 3 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 3 x $25 = $75 total payments for the three months are $50 + $50 + $75 = $175 get the plan with carry over minutes!
