Answer:
Length = 26 feet, Width = 16 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length be l.
Width b = l-10
The area of a rectangular garden, A = 416 feet²
We need to find the dimensions of the garden. The area of a rectangular shaped object is given by :
[tex]A=lb\\\\l(l-10)=416\\\\l^2-10l-416=0\\\\l=26\ ft,-16\ ft[/tex]
Neglecting the negative value, the length of the garden is 26 feet and the width is 12-10 = 16 feet.
