Answer: A(x) = 15 ft + 2x
EXPLANATION
Given,
The dimension of the rectangular garden is 20 ft by 15 ft.
Dimension of a rectangle is written as Length by Width
This implies that,
Length of the garden = 20 ft
Width of the garden = 15 ft
The garden has a walk around it of width x.
The combined width of the garden = Width of garden + 2x
[we are adding twice the width of the walk because it is
around the garden (this means it will add to the width of the garden on both the left and right sides)]
Combined width of the garden, A(x) = Width of garden + 2x
Since width of the garden = 15 ft
A(x) = 15 ft + 2x
We are given a scale that for every 1 in on the plan, the actual length will 6.5 ft.
The maximum distance across the pond on the plan is 9.75 in. So that means we will need to take 6.5 ft 9.75 times. So our answer is
6.5*9.75=63.375 ft. That's the answer.
We can visualize this a different way
1 in = 6.5 ft
9.75 in = x ft
And from here it's a little more clear to see what needs to be done.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
F
Step-by-step explanation:
20^2 + 21^2 = 27^2
400 + 441 = 729
