The width of border is 1.5 feet
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>Given that small garden measures 9 ft by 13 ft
A uniform border around the garden increases the total area to 192 ft square
To find: width of border
Let the width of border be "x"
Then the new measures of garden are (9 + 2x) feet and (13 + 2x) feet
The total area of garden = 192 square feet
<em><u>Let us solve the above equation by quadratic formula</u></em>
Using the above formula,
For , we have a = 4 ; b = 44 ; c = -75
Substituting the values of a = 4 ; b = 44 ; c = -75 in above quadratic formula we get,
Since "x" cannot be negative,
we get x = 1.5
Thus width of border is 1.5 feet
