Answer:

Area of flower bed = 189 square feet

Explanation:

The formula for the area of a rectangle is given by:

A = lw, where

  • A is the area in square units,
  • l is the length,
  • and w is the width.

Thus, we can plug in 21 for l and 9 for w in the rectangle area formula to find A, the area of the rectangular flower bed in square feet:

A = 21 * 9

A = 189

Thus, the area of the rectangular bed is 189 square feet.
