You could probably get a lawn aerator(for rent or purchase), whether it is the rolly type, or the ones attached to the bottom of shoes (like cleats). Lawn aeration is usually necessary because of thatch, but you could possibly consider changing the type of grass in your landscaping that has less of a thatch build-up than traditional lawn turf.

The perimeter of a rectangular shaped lawn is 52 feet and the area is 144 square feet What are the dimensions of the lawn?
18 and 8
What are the dimensions of a square lawn that is surrounded by a walk 1m wide and the area of the walk is equal to half the area of the lawn?
The dimensions of the lawn are about 8.9m x 8.9m. Solved using the steps below: Since the lawn is a square we'll let one side be x, therefore the area of the lawn is x2 The area of the walkway is the area of the walkway plus the lawn minus the area of the lawn. Since the lawn is surrounded by a 1m wide walkway each side of the walkway & lawn is x+1m+1m or x+2, so the area of the walkway & lawn together is (x+2)*(x+2). {Draw a picture to help you} Now the area of the walkway as mentioned above is the area of the walkway & lawn minus the area of the just the lawn, so we have (x-2)2 - x2 In the problem you stated that the area of the walk is half the area of the lawn. so we have: (x-2)2 - x2 = (1/2)*x2 Using algebra we have a quadratic equation simplified to: x2-8x-8=0 Using the quadratic formula, we solve for x. One solution is negative so we can discard that for this problem. The other solution is approximately 8.899m. Use the value of x and check your answer.
A pound of grass seed covers 4000 square feet of lawn Then how many pounds of grass seed are needed to cover a lawn measuring 150 feet by 160 feet?
150 ft * 160 ft = 24 000 square feet. 4 000 sq feet of lawn requires one pound of seeds so 24 000 sq ft of lawn will require 6 pounds of seed.
