Answer 1

Answer: kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Total area of parknand path way = 74,464 m2.

Dimension of park = 350m by 200m

Using the area of rectangle formula:

Area = Length * width

Area of park = 350m * 200m

Area of park = 70,000

Area of path = (74,464 - 70,000) = 4,464m2

Since path has uniform width, then width of the the path is sqrt(4464) = 66.8m

2.) the path of the park seems a bit narrow, hence, I wouldn't love children to bike and jog in such a narrow path
