Roy wants to make a path from one corner of his yard to the other as shown below. The path will be 4 feet wide. He wants to
find the area of lawn that remains.
40 ft
15 ft
Roy claims that the area of the lawn is 300 square feet since it covers exactly one-half of the yard. Which statement about his
claim is correct?
He is incorrect. The path will have an area of (4)(40) = 160 sq ft. The yard has an area of 600 sq ft. The area of the lawn
will be the difference of the yard and path, so it is 440 sq ft.
