This is a question that will require Pythagoras' theorem as you want to find the length of a diagonal of a triangle and are given the measurements of two sides. I have attached a picture of how to solve this problem.
To the nearest 10th of a foot, the answer is 77.6ft
I had the similar test and got it right so it should be B
Use the distance formula to find base and height.
Consecutive means right behind each other basically.
1,2,3,4,5 are consecutive numbers because they are in order.
the numbers got 135, 136, 137, 138, 139, 140
137 lies between 136 and 138.
136 and 138 is your answer
the question does not present the options, but this
does not interfere with the resolution
let
x-------> the length of the garden
y-------> the width of the garden
A-------> Area of the garden
we know that
A=x*y
A=120 ft²
for x=12 ft
120=12*y-----------------> y=10 ft
but
<span>the length of the garden to be more than 12 feet
so
</span>
x > 12 ft
therefore
y < 10 ft
Hence
the answer is
The width of the garden <span>must be less than 10 ft (width < 10 ft)</span>
