Answer:
6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
If the original side length is x, then the modified square has an area of ...
A = LW
32 = (x +2)(x -2) = x^2 -4
36 = x^2 . . . . . . . . add 4
6 = x . . . . . . . . . . take the square root
The original figure has a side length of 6 cm.

The modified figure is 8 cm by 4 cm = 32 cm^2.
Answer:
radicial expressions
Step-by-step explanation:
-34(x+2)=6
Distribute the -34
x(-34) +2(-34)=6
-34x-68=6
Add 68 to both sides
-34x-68+68=6+68
-34x=74
Devide both sides by -34
x=-37/17
x= 2 3/17
150x100= 15,000 square meters
150x2= 300
100 + 300 = 400 meters of fencing
