The initial dimenssions of the park lot are:
length: 140 ft
width: 90 ft
initial area: 140 * 90 = 12,600 ft^2
Area increased 29% = 12,600 * 1.29 = 16,254 ft^2
width of the strips: x
New length: 140 + x
New width: 90 + x
New area: (140+x)(90+x) = 16,254
Solution of the equation:
12600 + 230x + x^2 = 16254
=> x^2 + 230x - 3654 = 0
Use the quadratic formula.
x = {-230 +/- √[ 230^2 - 4*1*(-3654) ]} / 2 =
x = 14.92
The other solution is negative so it is discarded.
Answer: 15 ft

Step-by-step explanation:
sorry for the caps
The answer is 2m because it is like if you had 3 mangoes and you eat one you would have 2 mangoes.<span />
Alright. So the problem is
10*12+-15/5+2(9-4)
Lets break down what we can for now
First focus on parenthesized, multiplying, and dividing in the problem.
10*12=120 15/5=3 (9-4)=5
120+-3+2*5
So the next step, we see 2*5 and a negative -3 on top of a positive symbol.
2*5=10
120-3+10
Now subtract from the left to the right and get your answer.
120-3=117
117+10=127
