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

Below represents the proof that the quadrilateral QRST is a parallelogram

<h3>How to prove that QRST is a parallelogram?</h3>

The coordinates are given as:

Q = (-1,-1)

R = (2,9)

S = (-4,5)

T = (-7,-5)

Calculate the length of each side using:

d = \sqrt{(x_2 -x_1)^2 + (y_2 -y_1)^2}

So, we have:

QR = \sqrt{(-1 - 2)^2 + (-1 -9)^2} = \sqrt{109}

RS = \sqrt{(-4 - 2)^2 + (5 - 9)^2} = \sqrt{52}

ST = \sqrt{(-7 + 4)^2 + (-5 - 5)^2} = \sqrt{109}

TQ = \sqrt{(-7 + 1)^2 + (-5 + 1)^2} = \sqrt{52}

The above computations show that opposite sides are equal.

Next, we determine the slope of each side using:

m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}

So, we have:

QR = \frac{9 + 1}{2 + 3} = \frac{10}3

RS = \frac{5-9}{-4 - 2} = \frac{2}3

ST = \frac{5+5}{-4 + 7} = \frac{10}3

TQ = \frac{-5+1}{-7 + 1} = \frac{2}3

The above computations show that opposite sides are parallel, because they have equal slope

Hence, the quadrilateral QRST is a parallelogram
