The equation used to solved to determine the dimensions of the backyard is 51 = 4w - 10.4
Step-by-step explanation:
As given,
The backward is rectangular in shape
Also , we know that
Area of rectangle = 2 ( Length + Breadth )
Also, given,
Breadth of the backyard = 5.2 + Length of the backyard
Let
length of the backyard = l
Breadth of the backyard = w
∴ we get
w = 5.2 + l
⇒l = w - 5.2
and
Area = 2 ( l + w)
⇒51 = 2( w - 5.2 + w)
⇒51 = 2 ( 2w - 5.2)
⇒51 = 4w - 10.4
So, the equation used to solved to determine the dimensions of the backyard is 51 = 4w - 10.4
By solving we get
4w = 51 + 10.4
⇒4w = 61.4
⇒ w = 15.35
⇒ l = w - 5.2 = 15.35 - 5.2 = 10.15
⇒l = 10.15
So the dimensions of the backyard = l × b = 10.15 m × 15.35 m
