Answer:

240

Step-by-step explanation:

Assign Variables:

(I will choose mine a little bit differently)

d = length of garden

d = 20 feet

w = width of garden

A = area of garden

Equations and Solution:

A=d%2Aw and perimeter given as 64 feet means 2d%2B2w=64.

We know what is the d value, so we want to solve for w.

-

2w=64-2d

w=32-d

w=32-20

highlight%28w=12%29 feet

-

FINDING AREA VALUE

A=d%2Aw

A=20%2A12

highlight%28A=240%29 square feet
