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
Hello There!
As the amount is not changed, they would be independent.
However, if two were taken out then it would be dependent.
Yes, they are independent.
Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

There is some work on a website i found.
Answer:
The answer is X=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 5 from both sides
The five cancels itself out on the left side
X+5=17
-5 -5
x = -12
