Question

Item 6

Answer 1

Answer:

$Tomato = 14ft^2$

Explanation:

Given

Dimension of Garden = 9ft by 9ft

Dimension of Flowers = 5ft by 5ft

Required

Determine the area of tomato section

First, we calculate the area (A) of the garden

$A = 9ft * 9ft$

$A = 81ft^2$

Next, we calculate the area (a) of the flower at the center

$a = 5ft * 5ft$

$a = 25ft^2$

Calculate the difference to get the area of the remaining portion

$Area = A - a$

$Area = 81ft^2 - 25ft^2$

$Area = 56ft^2$

Since the remaining portion is divided into 4 equal section.

The tomato section has an area of.

$Tomato = \frac{Area}{4}$

$Tomato = \frac{56ft^2}{4}$

$Tomato = 14ft^2$
