A landscape plan includes a rectangular flower bed that is surrounded the wood planks. In the drawing, the rectangular flower bed is 6 in. by 8 in. The length and width of the actual flower bed will be 24 times larger than the length and width in the drawing (a) What is the perimeter of the drawing? Show your work.
(b) What is the perimeter of the actual flower bed? Show your work.
(c) What is the effect on the perimeter of the flower bed with the dimensions are multiplied by 24? Show your work.

Step-by-step explanation:

As for this problem, we will first establish that the length of the flower bed be represented as x, the width of the flower bed be represented as x/2 ,and the area of the flower bed be taken as it is since it is given. We then follow the formula for area which is length multiplied to width which is:

A = LW

we then substitute them

34 square feet = x (x/2)

now all we need to do is find x first.

34 square feet = x squared / 2

now do a cross multiplication

68 square feet = x squared

then get the square root of both sides

8.246 feet = x

Since x is equal to the length of the flower bed, all we have to do to get the width of it is to divide it by 2. So...

W = x/2

W = 8.246 feet / 2

W = 4.123 feet

And since the problem asked it to find the width of the flower bed to the nearest tenth of a foot, the answer would be 4.1 ft.
