Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 . Perimeter of garden excluding wall = 30 m

2 . 2 l + b = 30

b = 30 - 2 l

l × b = 100

l × (30 -2 l) = 100

30 l - 2 l² = 100

2 l² -30 l +100 = 0

l² - 15 l +50 = 0

l² - 10 l - 5 l +50 = 0

l (l - 10) -5 (l -10) =0

(l - 5 ) (l-10) = 0

l = 5 or 10 so

b = 20 or 10 So the dimensions can be 5×20 or 10×10

☯ Let the length of one side be x metres and other side be y metres. Then,

He fences three sides of of Rectanglular garden with 30 m barbed wire.

↬ x + y + x = 30

y = 39 - 2x ---eq (1)

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Area of vegetable garden = 100 m²

We know that,

Area of Rectangle = l × b

Putting values,

↬xy = 100

Putting value of y from eq (1),

↬ x(30 - 2x) = 100

↬ 30x - 2x² = 100

↬ 15x - x² = 50

↬ x² - 15x + 50 = 0

↬x² - 10x - 5x + 50 = 0

↬ (x - 10)(x - 5) = 0

x = 5 , 10

Putting value of x in eq (1),

When x = 5, we have

↬ y = 30 - 2 × 5

↬ y = 30 - 10

y = 20

And,

When x = 10, we have

↬ y = 30 - 2 × 10

↬ y = 30 - 20

y = 10

Hence, The dimensions of vegetable garden are, 50 m × 20 m or, 10 m × 10 m.
