Question

Mark is building a garden with raised beds. One side of the garden will be 10 feet long and the other will be 5 less than three times the first side. What area is Mark's garden?

Answer 1

Given that, one side of the garden be 10 feet long.

So, length : l = 10 feet.

And the other side will be 5 less than three times the first side.

So, width = 3l - 5

= 3(10) - 5 Since l: length = 10

= 30 - 5

= 25

So, area = Length * width

= 10 * 25

= 250.

So, the area of Mark's garden is 250 square feet.

Hope this helps you!
