The base and height of the garden are 4.60 ft and 5.60 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the garden is, A = 24 ft².

The base height of the garden are:

base (b) = 6x - 4

height (h) = x + 3

Compute the value of x as follows:

$A=\frac{1}{2}\times b \times h\\\\24=\frac{1}{2}\times (6x-4) \times (x+3)\\\\48=6x^{2}+18x-4x-12\\\\6x^{2}+14x-60=0\\\\3x^{2}+7x-30=0\\$

The last equation is a quadratic equation.

Compute the roots of the quadratic equation as follows:

$x = \frac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{ 2a }\\x = \frac{ -14 \pm \sqrt{14^2 - 4(3)(-30)}}{ 2(3) }\\x = \frac{ -14 \pm \sqrt{556}}{ 6 }\\x = \frac{ -14 }{ 6 } \pm \frac{2\sqrt{139}\, }{ 6 }\\x = -\frac{ 7}{ 3 } \pm \frac{ \sqrt{139}\, }{ 3 }\\x = 1.59661\\x\approx 1.60$

The value of base and height are:

$\text{base}=6x-4=(6\times 1.60)-4=5.60\ \text{ft}\\\\\text{height}=x+3=1.60+3=4.60\ \text{ft}$

Thus, the base and height of the garden are 4.60 ft and 5.60 ft.
