Answer:

  16.5 ft by 25.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the width of the garden in feet. Then w+9 is the garden's length, and w(w+9) represents its area.

The surrounding walkway adds 8 feet to each dimension, so the total area of the garden with the walkway is ...

  (w+8)(w+9+8) = w^2 +25w +136

If we subtract the area of the garden itself, then the remaining area is that of the walkway:

  (w^2 +25w +136) - (w(w+9)) = 400

  16w + 136 = 400 . . .simplify

  16w = 264 . . . . . . . . subtract 136

  264/16 = w = 16.5 . . . . . width of the garden in feet

  w+9 = 25.5 . . . . . . . . . . .length of the garden in feet

Elias has decided to fence in a garden that is in the shape of a parallelogram. If one side measures 76 ft and 250 ft of fencing
Leni [432]

The length of side of garden are 76 feet and 49 feet

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, Elias has decided to fence in a garden that is in the shape of a parallelogram

Measure of one side = 76 feet

250 ft of fencing is needed to enclose the garden

Therefore, perimeter = 250

<em><u>The perimeter of parallelogram is given by:</u></em>

Perimeter = 2(a + b)

Where, a and b are the length of sides

Here, a = 76

b = ?

<em><u>Substituting in formula, we get</u></em>

250 = 2(76 + b)

250 = 152 + b

2b = 250 - 152

2b = 98

b = 49

Thus the length of side of garden is 49 feet

2(5x+4) =10x+6 <br> is this equation always, sometimes or never true?<br> Asap please
frosja888 [35]
The equation is never true because you have to multiply 2 with all numbers in the parentheses. Therefore

2(5x +4) = 10x + 8.

Because 2 x 4 is not 6 but 8
