A rectangular lawn, 100 feet long by 50 feet wide, is to have two sidewalks installed that will cut the lawn in half both ways,
Damm [24]

Answer:

3.41 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = Length × Breath

Area of the rectangular lawn = 100 × 50

                                                = 5000 feet²

The sidewalk must occupy an area no more than 10% of the total lawn area.

So, the area of the sidewalk would be not more than  = 10% × 5000

                                                                                         = 0.10 × 5000

                                                                                        = 500 feet²

Let the width of the sidewalk = x feet

area of the side walk = (L×W of the long way) + ((L-x)×W of the short way)

(100 × x) + ((50 - x) × x) < 500

100x + (50-x)(x) < 500

-x²  + 150x < 500

-x² + 150x = 500

-x² + 150x - 500 = 0

By using quadratic formula

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

x=\frac{(-150)\pm\sqrt{(150)^2-4(-1)(-500)} }{2(-1)}

x=\frac{-150\pm \sqrt{20500} }{-2}

x=75-5\sqrt{205} or x=75+5\sqrt{205}

x = 3.41089 ≈ 3.41 feet  or  x = 146.58

Therefore, width of the sidewalk would be 3.41 feet.
