Area of tomato section is 45
Step-by-step explanation:
The total area for garden is the area of a square with side 14 ft.
That means the garden's total area is the square of its side:
Area of a square of side "x" = , then for our case where the square's side is 14 ft, the square's area becomes:
Inside this area, there is a square of side 4 ft reserved for flowers (and what is left -the rest- for veggies). The area of the flower section is then: . Therefore the rest of the garden that is intended for veggies is (the total garden area minus the flower section area) =

So in particular the tomato plant area is 45
