A rectangular garden is 6 feet long and 4 feet wide. A second rectangular garden has dimensions that are double the dimensions of the first garden. What is the percent of change in permeter from the first garden to the second garden

Respuesta :

Percent change is 100%

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the perimeter of the first garden when length = 6 ft and width = 4 ft

Perimeter = 2 (length + width)

                = 2 (6 + 4) = 2 × 10 = 20 ft

  • Step 2: Find the perimeter of the second garden when length = 12 ft and width = 8 ft (∵ dimensions are doubled)

Perimeter = 2 (12 + 8) = 2 × 20 = 40 ft

  • Step 3: Find the percent change in perimeter

Percent Change = Final value - initial value/Initial Value × 100

                            = (40 - 20/20) × 100

                            = 1 × 100 = 100%
