Question

a path all around inside of a rectangular Park 37 m by 30 M occupies an area of 570 m square find the width of the path

Answer 1

Answer:

5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of path be x

Outer length = 37 m

Outer width = 30 m

Inner length = 37-2x

Inner  width = 30-2x

Area of path = Outer area - Inner area

$570= (37)(30)-(37-2x)(30-2x)$---A

$x= \frac{57}{2} , 5$

Substitute 5 in A

$570= (37)(30)-(37-2(5))(30-2(5))$

$570= 570$

Hence  the width of the path is 5 m
