The initial dimenssions of the park lot are:
length: 140 ft
width: 90 ft
initial area: 140 * 90 = 12,600 ft^2
Area increased 29% = 12,600 * 1.29 = 16,254 ft^2
width of the strips: x
New length: 140 + x
New width: 90 + x
New area: (140+x)(90+x) = 16,254
Solution of the equation:
12600 + 230x + x^2 = 16254
=> x^2 + 230x - 3654 = 0
Use the quadratic formula.
x = {-230 +/- √[ 230^2 - 4*1*(-3654) ]} / 2 =
x = 14.92
The other solution is negative so it is discarded.
Answer: 15 ft
Answer:
6 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of "another side." Then "one side" is ...
2x -10 . . . . . . 10 feet shorter than twice another side
The sum of these two side lengths is half the perimeter, so is ...
x + (2x -10) = 14 . . . . . two sides are half the perimeter
3x = 24 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 10, collect terms
x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of x
(2x -10) = 2·8 -10 = 6 . . . . find "one side"
We have found "one side" to be 6 feet long, and "another side" to be 8 feet long. The shorter side is 6 feet.

Since we are already given the formula and all the information, the only thing that we have to do is input all the values and simplify until we get an answer. In addition, we must also note that the radius is 4 (because the diameter is equal to twice the radius, meaning that if the diameter is 8, the radius is 4). Using the formula and information given, we get:
Volume = 3 * (4)² * 12
Which simplifies to:
Volume = 3 * 16 * 12
Volume = 576
Now, we need to know the units. Since this is a 3d shape, and the unit for the lengths of the sides are centimeters, this answer will be in centimeters cubed. That means our answer is 576 centimeters cubed.
