The width of the square garden is 4 feet

<h3>How to determine the width of the garden?</h3>

The area of the garden is given as:

x^2 + 20x + 75 = 171

Subtract 171 from both sides

x^2 + 20x - 96 = 0

Expand

x^2 + 24x - 4x - 96 = 0

Factorize

x(x + 24) - 4(x + 24) = 0

Factor out x + 24

(x - 4)(x + 24) = 0

Solve for x

x = 4 or x =-24

The width of the garden cannot be negative.

So, we have:

x = 4

Hence, the width of the garden is 4 feet

AlekseyPX

Step-by-step explanation:

EQUATION: Volume=length x width x height.

V=l×w×h

1620cm^3=9cm×9cm×xcm

1620cm^3=81cm^2 ×xcm

xcm= 1620cm^3/81cm^2

xcm= 20cm

Which logarithmic function can be used to approximate the value of y in the equation 4^y=5?

spayn [35]

From the definition of logarithm, we know that:

$$a^y=b\quad\iff\quad y=\log_ab\qquad\quad \,\text{when }a,b\ \textgreater \ 0\,\,\text{ and }\,\,a\neq1$

In this case $a=4$ and $b=5$ so:

$$\boxed{y=\log_45}$
