Answer:
The base and height of the garden are 4.60 ft and 5.60 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the garden is, <em>A</em> = 24 ft².
The base height of the garden are:
base (<em>b</em>) = 6x - 4
height (<em>h</em>) = x + 3
Compute the value of <em>x</em> as follows:
The last equation is a quadratic equation.
Compute the roots of the quadratic equation as follows:
The value of base and height are:
Thus, the base and height of the garden are 4.60 ft and 5.60 ft.

Answer:
x < 14
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure given is a triangle with base (b) = x, and height (h) = 6 m.
We are told that the area is less than 42 m². To write an inequality that represents the base (b) = x, let's find the area of the triangle and create an inequality statement.
Area of ∆ = ½*b*h = ½*x*6
Area = x*3 = (3x) m²
The area is less than 42 m², as stated in the question. Which means, the inequality statement would be:
3x < 42
Divide both sides by 3
3x/3 < 42/3
x < 14
The inequality representing the missing dimension (the base) is x < 14
