Hello! We already have the equation set up, which is 9x = x + 4. Let's solve for x. Subtract x from both sides to get each side by itself x - x cancels out. 9x - x is 8x. That leaves 8x = 4. Now, divide each side by 8 to isolate the x. 8x/8 cancels out. 4/8 is 4/8 or 1/2 in cimplest form. Let's plug this value in and see if it works. 9 * 1/2 is 4 1/2. 1/2 + 4 is 4 1/2. 4 1/2 = 4 1/2. There. x = 1/2.

The flower beds occupy:
100% - 20% = 80%
We then have the following rule of three:
25 feet ^ 2 ------> 100%
x -----------------> 80%
We clear the value of x:
x = (80/100) * (25)
x = 20 feet ^ 2
