Answer:

The dimension of the vegetable garden farm is 9 feet by 5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating the dimensions of vegetable garden that is rectangular in shape.

Let the width of the garden be x feet, since the length of the garden is 4 feet longer, the length thus have a measure of (x + 4) feet

we have the value of the area, meaning multiplying the length and the width will yield that area

x(x + 4) = 45

x^2 + 4x -45 = 0

x^2 +9x -5x -45 = 0

x(x + 9) -5(x + 9) = 0

(x-5)(x+9) = 0

x = 5 or -9

we ignore the negative and width cannot be negative

Thus, x = 5 feet

Length = x + 4 = 5 + 4 = 9 feet

Luden [163]

Given:

In a two-digit number, the tens digit is 5 less than the units digit.

The number itself is five more than three times the sum of its digits.

To find:

The number.

Solution:

Let the two digit number is ab. So,

ab=10a+b

Tens digit is 5 less than the units digit.

a=b-5       ...(i)

The number itself is five more than three times the sum of its digits.

10a+b=3(a+b)+5

10a+b=3a+3b+5

10a+b-3a-3b=5

7a-2b=5          ...(ii)

Using (i) and (ii), we get

7(b-5)-2b=5

7b-35-2b=5

5b=5+35

5b=40

b=8

Putting b=8 in (i), we get

a=8-5

a=3

Therefore, the required number is 38.
