Question

the Gilberts are designing a rectangular patio for their backyard the patio has an area of 432 square feet the width of the patio 3/4 its length what is the length of the patio. please help

Answer 1

------------------------------------------------------------------
Given information
------------------------------------------------------------------
Area = 432 ft²
Width = 3/4 of its length

------------------------------------------------------------------
Form equation and solve for x
------------------------------------------------------------------
Let the length be $x$
Therefore the width is $\frac{3}{4} x$

Area = Length x Widith
$432 = x \times \frac{3}{4} x$
$432 =\frac{3}{4} x^2$
[divide by 3/4 on both sides]
$432 \div \frac{3}{4} =\frac{3}{4} x^2 \div \frac{3}{4}$
$576 = x^2$
$x^2 = 576$
$x = \sqrt{576}$
$x = 24$

------------------------------------------------------------------
Find Length
------------------------------------------------------------------
Length = x = 24

------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer : Length = 24 ft
------------------------------------------------------------------
