Area = perimeter + 132.  

Let  each side of the city be x miles long, then:-

x^2 = 4x  + 132
x^2 - 4x - 132 = 0

x  =  [-(-4) +/- sqrt((-4)^2 - 4 * 1 *-132)] / 2

x = 13.66, -9.66   We ignore the negative

So the city  has dimension of 13.66 * 13.66

13.7 * 13.7   to nearest 10th

irina [24]

Answer:

New bed dimension of bed 0.5 ft, 0.25 ft

New bed dimension of room 1.16 ft, 1.33 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

bed dimension is given as 6 ft by 3 ft

room dimension is given as 14 ft 16 ft

according to the given information , new dimension of the room and bed will be 1/12 times of actual dimension. therefore we have

New bed dimension of bed = \frac{1}{12} \times 6 ft, \frac{1}{12} \times 3 ft

                                 = 0.5 ft, 0.25 ft

New bed dimension of room = \frac{1}{12} \times 14 ft, \frac{1}{12} \times 16 ft

                                                 = 1.16 ft, 1.33 ft
