CALCULATE GARDENS LENGTH AND BREADTH
Answers
SOLUTION
GIVEN
The perimeter of a rectangular garden is 50m and its area is 150 m²
TO DETERMINE
The length and breadth of the garden
EVALUATION
Let length = x cm and breadth = y cm
∴ Perimeter = 2( x + y) cm
So by the given condition
Area = xy m²
So by the given condition
Using Equation 1 we get
From Equation 2
When x = 15 we have y = 10
When x = 10 we have y = 15
Since Length > Breadth
∴ x = 15 & y = 10
Hence Length = 15 m and Breadth = 10 m

TO DETERMINE
The length and breadth of the garden
EVALUATION
Let length = x cm and breadth = y cm
∴ Perimeter = 2( x + y) cm
So by the given condition
2(x+y)=50
⟹(x+y)=25−−−−(1)
Area = xy m²
So by the given condition
xy=150−−−−−(2)
Using Equation 1 we get
x(25 - x) = 150}x(25−x)=150
⟹x² −25x+150=0
⟹x² −15x−10x+150=0
⟹(x−15)(x−10)=0
⟹x=15,10
From Equation 2
When x = 15 we have y = 10
When x = 10 we have y = 15
Since Length > Breadth
∴ x = 15 & y = 10
Hence Length = 15 m and Breadth = 10 m
