Answer:

  • 35 feet long
  • 25 feet wide

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the width of the garden. Then the width of the garden and walk together will be w+6. The length of the garden is described as w+10, so the length with the walk is w+16.

The difference in areas with and without the walk is 396 square feet:

  (w+6)(w+16) -(w)(w+10) = 396

  w² +22w +96 -(w² +10w) = 396 . . . . expand products

  12w = 300 . . . . . . collect terms, subtract 96

  w = 25 . . . . . . . . . divide by 12

The dimensions of the garden are 25 feet wide by 35 feet long.

How do i do numer 1 and 3.?!?!?!?!?!
Anna11 [10]
To solve each question, all you've got to do is add the two numbers together and then graph the result on the number line.

1.) -3 +(-1.5)
Add 3 to -1.5. It would be the same as subtracting 1.5 from -3(-3 - 1.5)
Final Answer: -4.5<span>
Or, since you are using a number line, start on -3 and go left 1.5 units and you will land on the -4.5 point. You go to the left because you are adding a negative number..
</span>
2.) 1.5+3.5
Add<span>
Final Answer: 5
</span>Or, since you are using a number line, start on 1.5 and go to the right 3.5 and you will land on 5. You go to the right because you are adding a positive number.<span>

</span>3.) 1/4 + 1/2
Multiply 1/2 by 2 to make both fractions have the same denominator
1/4 + 2/4
Add<span>
Final Answer: 3/4
</span>Or, since you are using a number line, start on 1/4 and go up 2/4 and you will land on 3/4 as the result.<span>

</span>4.) -1 1/2 + (-1 1/2)
Add -1 1/2 to -1 1/2. This would be the same as subtracting 1 1/2 from -1 1/2(-1 1/2 - 1 1/2)<span>
Final Answer: -3
</span><span>Or, since you are using a number line, start on -1 1/2 and go to the left 1 1/2 and you will land on the -3 point.</span>
