A square of lawn is surrounded by a path 0.5m wide,,the area of the lawn is 23m^2 bigger than that of the area of the path ,,find the side of the lawn

Why are you posting the same question again ?

Pls what is x i beg you

To find the side of the lawn, we can set up an equation using the given information.

Let's assume that the side length of the square lawn is 'x' meters.

We know that the area of a square is given by multiplying the side length by itself. So, the area of the lawn is x^2.

The path surrounding the lawn has a width of 0.5m on all sides. This means that the length and width of the path will be (x+2*0.5) and (x+2*0.5) respectively.

The area of the path is then (x+1)(x+1) = (x+1)^2.

According to the problem, the area of the lawn is 23m^2 bigger than the area of the path. So, we can set up the equation:

x^2 = (x+1)^2 + 23

Expanding the equation:

x^2 = (x^2 + 2x + 1) + 23

Simplifying the equation:

x^2 = x^2 + 2x + 24

Subtracting x^2 from both sides:

0 = 2x + 24

Subtracting 24 from both sides:

-24 = 2x

Dividing both sides by 2:

-12 = x

The side length of the lawn is -12 meters.

However, a negative measurement for the side length is not possible in this situation. Hence, there is no valid solution for this problem. Double-check the given information or constraints to ensure there are no mistakes.
