(a)
Answer to Problem 14PPS
The expression in the factored form of the area of the walkway is
Explanation of Solution
Given Information:
The sides of the squared base
Width of the walkway
Calculation:
The given sides of the squared base is
Find the area of the base.
Now, find the length and width of the total rectangular area.
So, find the total area.
Now, find the area of the walkway. Subtract the area of the garden from the total area.
Since, the greatest common factor of the polynomial
Hence, the expression in the factored form of the area of the walkway is
(b)
To calculate: The area of the walkway when the base of the statue is 3 meter.
(b)
Answer to Problem 14PPS
The area is 108 square meter.
Explanation of Solution
Given Information:
Area of the walkway=
Base of the statue=3 meter
Calculation:
The given area of the walkway is
To find the area, substitute 3 for
Hence, the area is 108 square meter.
