\n" ); document.write( "The perimeter of a rectangular garden is 60 m and its area is 225 m^. Find the length of the garden. Use L = length and W = width.
\n" ); document.write( "A. Write a quadratic equation in terms of L in the form 0 = aL + bL + c that represents the area of the the flower bed.
\n" ); document.write( "B. Solve the quadratic equation you wrote in part A using one of the methods discussed in this unit.
\n" ); document.write( "
With L and W being the length and width, respectively, we get: 2(L + W) = 60______2(L + W) = 2(30)_______L + W = 30_______W = 30 - L
\n" ); document.write( "As area is \"matrix%281%2C2%2C+225%2C+m%5E2%29\", we can say that: L(30 - L) = 225
\n" ); document.write( "\"30L+-+L%5E2+=+225\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight_green%280+=+L%5E2+-+30L+%2B225%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Solve by any of the 4 methods to get dimensions: \"matrix%281%2C5%2C+15%2C+m%2C+by%2C+15%2C+m%29\" \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
