Ms. Ahmed has a rectangular garden where she grows tomatoes. The length of her garden is represented by t + 4 and the width by 2

t - 1. Express the area of Ms. Ahmed's garden as a polynomial in standard form. If the area of Ms. Ahmed's garden is 56 ft2, what are the dimensions of the garden?

Answer:

Area of the garden in standard form:

Area = (2t^2) + 7t - 4

The dimension of the garden is 8ft × 7ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the rectangular garden, L = t+4

Width of the garden, B = 2t - 1

Area = length * width

Area = (t+4) * ( 2t-1)

Area = (2t^2) + 7t - 4..….......(1)

If the Area = 56 ft^2

Substitute Area into (1)

56 = (2t^2) + 7t - 4

(2t^2) + 7t - 60 = 0

(2t^2) - 8t + 15t - 60 = 0

2t(t - 4) + 15(t - 4) = 0

(2t+15) (t-4) = 0

Let 2t + 15 =0

t = -7.5

Let t - 4 = 0

t = 4

* When t = -7.5

Length, L = -7.5 + 4 = -3.5 ft

Width, B = 2(-7.5) -1 = -16 ft

Since length and breadth cannot be negative, t = -7.5 is not possible

** When t = 4

Length, L = 4+4 = 8 ft

Width, B = 2(4) - 1 = 7 ft

Therefore, the dimension of the garden is 8ft × 7ft

Answer:

The dimension is 8ft by 7ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Length l =  (t+4)

Width w=  (2t-1)

the area  is expressed as  A= length * width

A= (t+4)*(2t-1)\\A= t(2t-1) +4(2t-1)\\A= 2t^{2}-t+8t-4\\

collecting like terms we have

A= 2t^{2} +7t-4

hence our expression for area is A= 2t^{2} +7t-4

given that the area is 56ft^{2}  to solve for the sides we need to first solve fot t

equating the expression for area to 56 we can solve for t

A= 2t^{2} +7t-4= 56

taking the constant term to the other side and solve we have

A= 2t^{2} +7t-4-56\\A= 2t^{2} +7t-60\\

we can substitute two factors for 7t that when multiplied we give -60 and when added we give 7  these factors are 15 and -8

A= 2t^{2} +7t-60\\\\A= 2t^{2} -8t+15t-60\\2t^{2} -8t+15t-60=0\\\\2t(t-4) +15(t-4)= 0\\2t+15=0,  (t-4)= 0\\2t=-15, t= -7.5\\t= 4

t=4  hence the length is

(t+4)\\(4+4)= 8ft\\

hence the width  is

(2t-1)\\(2*4-1)= (8-1)= 7ft

Let's start b writing down coordinates of all points:
A(0,0,0)
B(0,5,0)
C(3,5,0)
D(3,0,0)
E(3,0,4)
F(0,0,4)
G(0,5,4)
H(3,5,4)

a.) When we reflect over xz plane x and z coordinates stay same, y coordinate  changes to same numerical value but opposite sign. Moving front-back is moving over x-axis, moving left-right is moving over y-axis, moving up-down is moving over z-axis.

A(0,0,0)

B(0,5,0)

B(0,-5,0)

C(3,5,0)
