Answer 1

The student's question involves calculating area given lengths of a tomato patch, assuming a fixed width or a secondary expression for width. Conversion to square meters and using significant figures are also part of the calculation process.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question involves finding the area of a vegetable garden for different lengths of a tomato patch. To calculate the area, Melissa would need to multiply the length of the tomato patch by its width. However, as the width is not provided in the original question, it's assumed to be a fixed measurement, or another expression needs to be provided to complete the table accurately.

For example, if we had a rectangular garden plot with dimensions of 36.7 cm by 128.8 cm, the area would be calculated by multiplying these two numbers. To convert to square meters, we divide the product by 10,000 because 1 square meter is equivalent to 10,000 square centimeters. Remember to express the final answer in significant figures appropriate to the precision of the given measurements.
