A farmer wishes to fence a 100 m2 rectangular garden. He has 30m of barbed wire and isable to fence only three sides of the garden. Find the dimensions of the garden.

Answer»

Let the length and breadth of the vegetable garden be x and y respectively

We know that

Area of Rectangle=length multiply breadth

So,xy=100[because AREA=100 squqare meter

y=100/x

Also,the sum of three sides of the rectangular garden is 30meter

x+100/x+100/x=30

So,x=10 and y=10 or x=20 and y=5

because it is a rectangular garden x=10 is not possible unless it is a square

So,length=20 meter and breadth=5 meter

i have one more question

can you help me
