The dimensions of the border is 1.5 feet for the garden

A rectangle is a quadrilateral with four sides and four angles in which opposite sides are equal and parallel.

The area of a rectangle = Length * breadth

Given that length of garden = 16 ft., width of garden = 12 ft.

It is surrounded by a mulch of width x, hence:

New length = 16 + x + x = 16 + 2x

New width = 12 + x + x = 12 + 2x

The area of garden = 16 + 2x(12 + 2x) = 192 + 56x + 4x²

Since the maximum area is 285 ft, hence:

192 + 56x + 4x² = 285

4x² + 56x - 93 = 0

x = 1.5 feet

The dimensions of the border is 1.5 feet

Which value of x makes the inequality -* &lt; 8 true?
elena55 [62]

Answer:

D: x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Go down the multiple choices answers and plug each value in for x until the inequality is true:

A:

1/4(32) < 8

1/4 × 32/1 < 8

32/4 < 8

8 < 8

8 is not less than 8 so this is false (8 = 8).

B:

1/4(35) < 8

35/4 < 8

8 3/4 < 8

8 3/4 is not less than 8 so this is false (8 3/4 > 8).

C:

1/4(34) < 8

34/4 < 8

8 2/4 < 8

8 2/4 is not less than 8 so this is false (8 2/4 > 8).

D:

1/4(2) < 8

2/4 < 8

2/4 is less than 8 so this is true (2/4 = 1/2 = 0.5 > 8).
