Answer:

The width is 20 ft and the length is 80 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = l * w

l = w +60

SA = 1600 ft^2 ( which is the regular area)  The surface area of the water is just what is on top  which is length times width

1600 = l*w

Substitute in l = w+60

  1600       = (w+60) *w

Distribute the w

1600 = w^2 +60w

Subtract 1600 from each side

1600-1600 = w^2 + 60w -1600

0 =  w^2 + 60w -1600

Factor

0=(w-20) (w+80)

Using the zero product property

w-20=0   w+80 =0

w=20  or w=-80

The width cannot be negative   so

w=20

Now we need to find the length

l = w+60

l = 60+20

l =80

A gardener uses 1/3 of a liter of water to water 2/7 of a garden.
Serjik [45]

the gardener would need (1 + 1/6) liters of water to water the whole garden.

<h3>How much water would the gardener need to water the whole garden?</h3>

Here we know that the gardener needs 1/3 of a liter of water to water 2/7 of a garden.

Then we have the relation:

1/3 L = 2/7 of a garden.

Now, we want to get a "1 garden" in the right side of the equation, then we can multiply both sides by (7/2), so we get:

(7/2)*(1/3) L = (7/2)*(2/7) of a garden

(7/6)L = 1 garden.

(1 + 1/6) L = 1 garden

This means that the gardener would need (1 + 1/6) liters of water to water the whole garden.
