c
The farmer decides to extend the width of the patio. The area of the patio with the extension is now (x2 + 12x-160) square feet. By how
many feet will the patio be extended from what you found in part a?

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The patio is in the form of a rectangle. The patio has a width of (x - 10) ft. Therefore given that the area of the patio is x² + 10x - 200, hence:

b) Area of original house = length of house * breadth of house

The length of house = length of patio = x + 20; breadth of house = x + 10; therefore:

Area of original house = (x + 20)(x + 10) = x² + 10x + 20x + 200

Area of original house = x² + 30x + 200

c) If the width is extended, hence:

answer: a

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

first you will have to convert 3/4 into a decimal

which is .75

then you will have to divide 1.5 by .75

which is 2

no you have to divide
