LANDSCAPING For Exercises 19 and 20, use the following information.<br />

Jocelyn is designing a bed for cactus specimens at a botanical garden. The total area can be<br />

modeled by the expression 2x 2 7x 3, where x is in feet.<br />

19. Suppose in one design the length of the cactus bed is 4x, and in another, the length is<br />

2x 1. What are the widths of the two designs?<br />

20. If x 3 feet, what will be the dimensions of the cactus bed in each of the designs?<br />

21. FURNITURE Teri is upholstering the seats of four chairs and a bench. She needs<br />

1<br />

1<br />

square yard of fabric for each chair, and square yard for the bench. If the fabric at<br />

4<br />

2<br />

the store is 45 inches wide, how many yards of fabric will Teri need to cover the chairs<br />

and the bench if there is no waste?<br />
