So the original lawn has an area
24 × 32 = 768 the new lawn will have area 425
this means the area of the sidewalk will be 768-425=343
now the sidewalk is a certain width of we draw it out and label it x we see the lawn has an area of
use the quadratic formula to solve. then you will know how wide the sidewalk is. I will attach picture

Answer: 24 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
It appears the shaded area of the rectangle is half of the rectangle's area. This means if we find the area of the rectangle and divide it by 2 we will know the area of the shaded portion.
The formula for the area of a rectangle is
Where
l is the length (8 for this)
w is the width (6 for this)
A is the area
However, since we are finding half the area we will divide lw by 2
Sub the values into the formula
