Answer:

Area = 77 yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

Width = w

Length = w+4

Perimeter =36

Perimeter = L + L + w + w

36 = w+4+w+4+w+w

4w+8 =36

Subtract 8 from both sides

4w = 36 - 8

4w =28

Divide both sides by 4

W= 28/4

W= 7yd

Therefore length = w+4 = 7+4 = 11 yd

Area = length x width

Area = 11× 7

Area = 77 yd²
