The area of a square garden is 12.25 sq/m.
\n" ); document.write( " Determine the perimeter of the garden, if the owner decides to put a gravel pathway in the garden that reduces the area of the garden by 4.96 sq/m.
\n" ); document.write( " What is the new side length of the garden?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "The area of garden not including the pathway
\n" ); document.write( "12.25 - 4.96 = 7.29 sq/m
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "The perimeter of the remaining square
\n" ); document.write( "P = 4 * $\"sqrt%287.29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "P = 4 * 2.7 m
\n" ); document.write( "P = 10.8 m is the perimeter
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Obviously one side would be 2.7 m \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
