Answer:

The length of the garden is 3x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we can say that the garden has a rectangular geometry, then the perimeter is:

P=2w+2l

Being w and l, the with and the length respectively. We both know the perimeter and the width:

P=8x+8

w=x

If we replace in the perimeter equation above:

8x+8=2x+2l

By solving for the length l:

l=(8x+8-2x)/2

l=(6x+8)/2

l=3x+4
