Lets say w is the width of the flower bed. We can make an equation to find the area.
The length of the of the flower bed is (w+5) and the width is w.
To find the area we need to multiply the length(w+5) by the width(w) and set it equal to 84,
(w+5)(w)=84
w^2 +5w=84
Using the quadratic equation you get the solutions of 7 and -12. Since 7 is positive it is our width. Our length is 7+5 or 12.

Hi hopefully this helps you!
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area of a circle you can use the formula A = πr^2
The radius of a circle is just the diameter divided by 2. In this case we know the diameter is 3, so the radius is 1.5
A = π(1.5)^2
= 7.07
Because this is a semicircle, divide this area by 2
= 3.53429 in^2
Add up the area of this semi circle with the area of the rectangle
A = (3.53429) + (3x4)
= 15.53429 in^2
To find the circumference/ perimeter of a circle use this formula C = 2πR
C = 2π(1.5)
= 9.42478 inches
Again because this is a semicircle, divide by 2
= 9.42478 / 2
= 4.71239 inches
To find the perimeter of this entire shape add up the circumference of the semicircle and the rectangle's sides and bottom
P = 4.71239 + 4 + 4 + 3
= 15.71239 inches
So the final answer would be
A = 15.53 squared inches
P = 15.71 inches
Hope this helps! Best of luck in your studies <3
This problem is easier solved by finding the probability that she does NOT do her homework both Monday and Tuesday, which is obtained by the multiplication rule.
P(no HW on Monday) = 1-0.75 = 0.25
P(no HW on Tuesday) = 1-0.75 = 0.25
P(no HW on both Monday and Tuesday) = 0.25*0.25=0.0625
[by the multiplication rule]
This means that the rest of the time (1-0.0625=0.9375) Elsie does her homework either Monday, or Tuesday, or both days.
=>
P(HW either Monday, Tuesday, or both) = 0.9375
(note: in current English, Monday or Tuesday means "either Monday, Tuesday, or both days")
