- let the width of the path be x.
- the length and width of a outer rectangle is :
- length : 20 + 2 x
- width : 14 + 2 x
- the area of a outer rectangular is :
- (14+2x)(20+2x) = 4x^2 +68x +280
- the area of a field :
- 14 × 20 = 280 meter sq.
- the area of a path is diffrence between two areas :
- (4x^2 +68x +280)-280= 4x^2 +68x
- 4x^2 + 68x = 72
- 4x^2+68x-72=0
- solving from x:
- the roots are : -1 and 18
- x^2 -x +18x -18=0
- x (x-1)+18(x-1)= 0
- (x-1)(x+18)=0
- x=1 or -18
- we take 1 since it is positive and length is positive
- length of a path is 1 meter
