Arectangular yard measuring 24 ft by 44 ft is bordered (and surrounded) by a fence. inside, a walk that is 2 ft wide goes all the way along the fence. find the area of this walk. be sure to include the correct unit in your answer.

1 - First we can determine the area of the yard alone by doing:

22 feet x 44 feet = 968 feet squared

2 - Then, we can calculate the area of the walk by first subtracting two from the original values given ( 22 and 44 ), and then subtract the area of the yard with the value given in the equation we setup and solved below:

(22-2) x (44-2) = 20 x 42 = 840 feet squared

3 - Stated in step 2, subtract 840 from the yard's area ( 968 feet squared ) to determine the space that is left over, that'll represent the 'walk' in this case:

968 - 840 = 128 feet squared

4 - Final

The area of the walk is 128 feet squared.

one of the most important purposes of surface treatment is to alter surface properties according to the requirement of specific applications. for example, hydrophobic coating has been utilized on windshield and eyeglasses. gold atom monolayer on substrate has become a popular surface bioconjugation strategy.
