    Answer: Perimeter = (4x + 40) feet

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given that the

    Length of the garden = 15 feet

    And

    Width of the garden = 5 feet

    The length and the width of the garden increase by an equal value.

    To find the expression representing the perimeter of the garden,

    Let x be the increased amount of length.

    Thus, the new length of garden becomes (x+15) and the new width of garden becomes (x+5)

    Let us assume that the garden is a rectangle, then,

    Perimeter of garden = 2 (L + W)

    = 2 (x + 15 + x + 5)

    = 2 (2x + 20)

    = (4x + 40) feet.

    Or

    Perimeter = (x+15) + (x + 5) (x + 15) + (x + 5)

    = 4x + 40
