Your dad is designing a new garden for your backyard. He has 20 feet of fencing to go around the garden. He wants the length of the garden to be 2 1/2 feet longer than the width. How long should he make the garden?

l=11.25 (total of both lengths, you divide that by 2 for one side.)

Step-by-step explanation:

l*w=20 ft

l=w+2 1/2 ft

w+2 1/2 *w= 20

-2 1/2

2w=17 1/2

divide by 2

w=8.75 l= 11.25

8.75+2.5 = 11.25

13

step-by-step explanation:

divide the cost of the total of sodas you bought by the cost of one soda, for example:

$24.57 divided by $1.89 is 13 which means you bought 13 sodas

answer: 1 + 1 = 11
