The equation 22 = 2y + x represents the perimeter of a flower garden with
length y (in feet) and width x (in feet). solve for y. then find the length of the
flower bed when the width is 2 feet, 3 feet, and 4 feet.

For width = 2 ft, the length of the flower bed = 10 ft.

For width = 3 ft, the length of the flower bed = 9.5 ft.

For width = 4 ft, the length of the flower bed = 9 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the Perimeter of the flower garden is given as

22 = 2 y + x

: where, y : Length of the garden

and x : Width of the garden .

Now, solving for y in the above expression,we get

22 = 2 y + x  ⇒    22 - x = 2 y

or,

Now, when the width (x) = 2 feet

Length of the flower  bed

or, x = 10 ft

⇒For, the width = 2 ft, the length of the flower bed = 10 ft.

when the width (x) = 3 feet

Length of the flower  bed

or, x = 9.5 ft

⇒For, the width = 3 ft, the length of the flower bed = 9.5 ft.

when the width (x) = 4 feet

Length of the flower  bed

or, x = 9 ft

⇒For, the width = 4 ft, the length of the flower bed = 9 ft.

the answer is c. 23/3

1: -2 3/4, -2 1/2, -14, 0, 3, 8 1/3

2: -4, -3, -2 1/2, -2 1/4, 3 1/4,
