Answer:

(x+11) by (x+10)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Area = Length x width

Given: Area = x²+9x+20

Lets sort this out first

Area = x²+5x + 4x + 20

Area = x(x+5) + 4(x+5)

Area = (x+5) (x+4)

Therefore, it is concluded that:

Length 'l' = (x+5) feet

Width 'w' = (x+4) feet

if a 3-foot walkway is built around the fountain, we'll add 3 feet on both sides

Therefore,

Outer Length = (x+5+3+3) = (x+11) feet

Outer Width = (x+4+3+3) = (x+10) feet

Answer:

The fountain is (x+5) by (x+4).  

dimensions of the outside border of the walkway are (x+11) by (x+10)

Given

x+1 = \sqrt{7x+15}

We have to set the restraint

x+1\geq 0 \iff x \geq -1

because a square root is non-negative, and thus it can't equal a negative number. With this in mind, we can square both sides:

(x+1)^2=7x+15 \iff x^2+2x+1=7x+15 \iff x^2-5x-14 = 0

The solutions to this equation are 7 and -2. Recalling that we can only accept solutions greater than or equal to -1, 7 is a feasible solution, while -2 is extraneous.

Similarly, we have

x-3 = \sqrt{x-1}+4 \iff x-7=\sqrt{x-1}

So, we have to impose

x-7\geq 0 \iff x \geq 7

Squaring both sides, we have

(x-7)^2=x-1 \iff x^2-14x+49=x-1 \iff x^2-15x+50 = 0

The solutions to this equation are 5 and 10. Since we only accept solutions greater than or equal to 7, 10 is a feasible solution, while 5 is extraneous.
