The recommended space needed for a certain plant is 2 square feet. You are planting 32 of these plants in a square garden. Find the length of each side of the garden if you will follow the recommended spacing?
well, this is not a trivial question. Here is a sample. https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/2548513/maximum-number-of-circle-packing-into-a-rectangle
trivial -- they require "square feet" not circular feet! Duh!
thas a riddle
To find the length of each side of the garden, we need to calculate the total area required for 32 plants and then find the square root of that area.
Since each plant requires 2 square feet of space, the total area required for 32 plants is:
32 plants * 2 square feet/plant = 64 square feet
Now, let's find the length of each side of the garden by taking the square root of the total area:
Length of side = √(64 square feet)
Calculating the square root of 64 gives us the length of each side of the garden. The square root of 64 is 8.
Therefore, the length of each side of the garden should be 8 feet.
