ANSWER
...............
Let the length of rectangular garden be x metres
Let the breadth of rectangular garden be y.
Given half perimeter of rectangular garden is 36 m 1/2
= {2(Length + breadth) }= 36
or (x + y) = 36 x + y – 36 = 0
Also, Length is 4 m more than its width
(Length )= 4 + (Breadth) or x = 4 + (y) x – y – 4 = 0 Now,
plotting equations x + y – 36 = 0 ...(1) x – y – 4 = 0 …(2) Solving (1) x + y – 36 = 0 y = 36 – x Solving (2) x − y – 4 = 0 y = x − 4
The equations intersect at (20,16) So, the solutions of our equation is (20,16)
Length of garden = x = 20 m Breadth of garden = y = 16 m
THEREFORE
X = 20 M
Y = 16 M

Answer:
The length and width of the rectangular garden is 20 cm and 16 cm respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
➦Half Perimeter = 36 cm
➦Length is = 4 cm more than width
➦Dimensions of the garden = ??
Let,
⟶Width of rectangle = x
⟶Length of rectangle = x + 4
⟶Half Perimeter of rectangle = 36 cm
★ According to the Question :
⟶x + (x + 4) = 36
⟶2x + 4 = 36
⟶2x = 36 - 4
⟶ 2x = 32
⟶x = 32 / 2
⟶ x = 16
Width of rectangle = 16 cm
__________________
★ Length of rectangle =
→ x + 4
→ 16 + 4
→ 20
Length of rectangle = 20 cm
_______________________
The dimensions =
Length = 20 cm
Width = 16 cm
Therefore, the length and width of the rectangular garden is 20 cm and 16 cm respectively.
