okay so the ration is 1:2 so that would look something like this, 1x + 2x = 15 3x = 15 3x/3. 15/3 x = 5 Gemma. 1x, Zak = 2x so Gemma = 5 biscutis and Zak = 10 biscutis.

Hope this helped you!

You have a garden in your backyard that measures 15 meters by 20 meters. You want to place stepping stones around the perimeter

Anettt [7]

Answer:

0.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the dimensions of the garden are 15 meters by 20 meters.

The area of the new garden (original garden + stone placed around the perimeter) is 336m².

Let d be the width of the border having stepping stones as shown in the figure. The shaded region in the figure is the area having stepping stones.

The area including the shaded region $= (15+2d)(20+2d) m^2$

$\Rightarrow 336 = (15+2d)(20+2d) \\\\\Rightarrow 336 = 300+ 70 d +4d^2 \\\\\Rightarrow 4d^2 +70d+300-336=0 \\\\\Rightarrow 4d^2 +70d-36=0 \\\\\Rightarrow 2d^2 +35d-18=0 \\\\\Rightarrow 2d^2 +36d-d-18=0 \\\\\Rightarrow (2d-1)(d+18)=0 \\\\\Rightarrow (2d-1)=0, \; or \; (d+18) \\\\\Rightarrow d= 0.5\;or -18 \\\\$
