Question

Create a function called brick_path that takes three parameters: wall_length, small_bricks, and large_bricks. The parameters for small_bricks and large_bricks are also in units of length. You want to make a row of bricks that is wall_length inches long (exactly) using some combination of the two brick types. Return 'Possible' if it is possible to meet that goal by choosing from the given bricks. Otherwise return 'Not Possible'. For example: If wall_length = 8, small_bricks = 2, large_bricks = 3 then it’s not possible because there is no way to get 8 inches using the given bricks. On the other hand, wall_length = 7 with small_bricks = 2 and large_bricks = 3 is possible (1 large and 2 small gives you 7). Test your model with these parameter values. Conduct several additional tests to evaluate your function - All function calls and tests of your functions should be enclosed using the if name == 'main' code block at the end of your script.

00:01 Hi, from the question given that suppose a friend has given you a leftover landscape bricks.

00:10 You decide to make a garden bed and surrounded it with the bricks.

00:15 There are 62 bricks totally.

00:19 Total bricks will be 62 and each bricks is 8 inches long.

00:29 So each brick is 8 inches long.

00:36 You would like to make the garden bed to slightly more than twice as long as its width.

00:45 So here let us consider the given diagram rectangular bed with length 2x plus 1 and the width is x.

00:58 So here also given that you have also given yourself a bought a dollar 125.

01:06 So your budget will be dollar 125 and each brick cost will be dollar 1 .98.

01:27 So in part one we need to find the perimeter of the rectangle.

01:32 Perimeter is nothing but two times of length plus width.

01:36 So here the perimeter is equal to two times of length is 2x plus 1 plus width is x.

01:44 So that is equal to two times of 3x plus 1.

01:48 So for further simplification we obtain the perimeter is equal to 6x plus 2.

01:56 Now let us move on to the part two.

02:00 So in part two we need to find the number of bricks that can be used.

02:09 So here the total bricks is given as 62.

02:11 So here perimeter will be 6x plus 2 which is equal to 62.

02:21 So when we solve this...
