28 The diagram shows a garden in the shape of a rectangle.

Diagram NOT accurately drawn
All measurements are in metres.
The perimeter of the garden is 32 metres.
Work out the value of \(x\) (4)
| Answer | Mark | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 1.5 | 4 | M1 for correct expression for perimeter eg. \(4 + 3x + x + 6 + 4 + 3x + x + 6\) oe M1 for forming correct equation eg. \(4 + 3x + x + 6 + 4 + 3x + x + 6 = 32\) oe M1 for \(8x = 12\) or 12 ÷ 8 A1 for 1.5 oe OR M1 for correct expression for semi-perimeter eg. \(4 + 3x + x + 6\) oe M1 for forming correct equation eg. \(4 + 3x + x + 6 = 16\) M1 for \(4x = 6\) or 6 ÷ 4 A1 for 1.5 oe |
