Question

a rectangular garden with a length of 12 ft and width of 18 ft holds 32 flowers find the population density of flowers to the nearest hundredth

Answer 1

Let's begin by identifying key information given to us:

Length = 12 ft, Width = 18 ft, number of flowers = 32

Area (of rectangular garden) = Length * Width = 12 * 18 = 216 sq ft

Population density = Number of flowers / Area

$\begin{gathered} D=\frac{n}{A}=\frac{32}{216}=0.1482\approx0.15 \\ D=0.15/ft^2 \end{gathered}$
