A. length = 16 yd, width = 22 yd

B. length = 16 yd, width = 10 yd

C. length = 22 yd, width = 16 yd

D. length = 10 yd, width = 16 yd

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

16x10=160

Your width should be 6yd longer so look at the options and see in which options the width is 6 yd longer. It is longer in option A and D, so this eliminates option B and C. Now that we know it’s not b or c, the width times the length should be 160. For option A the area is 352 not 160, so it’s not option A meaning it has to be option D. Just to check 10 x 16 is 160. So yes option d is your final answer. OPTION D. Hope this helps! Would really appreciate it I’ve given brainliest.
